Hi believer,
do you have any Quranic referance to back up this, please present it so we can proceed on this.

The friends of God will certainly have nothing to fear, nor will they be grieved. Al Quran 10:62

My understanding is that it is from the writings of Ibn Taimiyah -
Is it interpretation of hadith?

believer,
it is an important matter, you have to bring in Quranic referance if you want to discuss it here. I personally don't post or click on those outside links.

This topic has been started on a wrong supposition. The prophet Muhammad (pbuh) will ask for the ability for intercession for certain followers:
I said, "O Allah's Apostle! Who will be the luckiest person who will gain your intercession on the Day of Resurrection?" The Prophet said, "O Abu Huraira! I have thought that none will ask me about this Hadith before you, as I know your longing for the (learning of) Hadiths. The luckiest person who will have my intercession on the Day of Resurrection will be the one who said, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah,' sincerely from the bottom of his heart." (More constructive dialogue please, less of the hole-picking)

Farooqui - Me asking is it an interpretation of hadith by Ibn Taimiyah hole-picking? 020.109
YUSUFALI: On that Day shall no intercession avail except for those for whom permission has been granted by (Allah) Most Gracious and whose word is acceptable to Him. PICKTHAL: On that day no intercession availeth save (that of) him unto whom the Beneficent hath given leave and whose word He accepteth. SHAKIR: On that day shall no intercession avail except of him whom the Beneficent Allah allows and whose word He is pleased with.
021.028
YUSUFALI: He knows what is before them, and what is behind them, and they offer no intercession except for those who are acceptable, and they stand in awe and reverence of His (Glory). PICKTHAL: He knoweth what is before them and what is behind them, and they cannot intercede except for him whom He accepteth, and they quake for awe of Him. SHAKIR: He knows what is before them and what is behind them, and they do not intercede except for him whom He approves and for fear of Him they tremble 034.023
YUSUFALI: "No intercession can avail in His Presence, except for those for whom He has granted permission. So far (is this the case) that, when terror is removed from their hearts (at the Day of Judgment, then) will they say, 'what is it that your Lord commanded?' they will say, 'That which is true and just; and He is the Most High Most Great'." PICKTHAL: No intercession availeth with Him save for him whom He permitteth. Yet, when fear is banished from their hearts, they say: What was it that your Lord said? They say: The Truth. And He is the Sublime, the Great. SHAKIR: And intercession will not avail aught with Him save of him whom He permits. Until when fear shall be removed from their hearts, They shall say: What is it that your Lord said? They shall say: The truth. And He is the Most High, the Great. |

Believer, you began by supposing there was no interscession in Islam which both the Quran and the hadith provide description of the reverse. Your own quote makes this clear. In cases like this where�s the grey area? what�s left to ask? I intend no offence but on the face of it, it appeared non-constructive. On the other hand please take my apologies if you�ve really picked up some new knowledge from this item.

Farooqui -I have been repeatly told by Muslims that there are no intercessors in Islam. They question how Jesus can be an intercessor for the Christian.
I was believing Muslims on their word and just found this when reading on the UMC site for another thread.
honeto what is your understanding?
My next question - Who is receiving and who is interceeding?
