Concept of Mediation (WasIīlah)
مَّن يُطِعِ ٱلرَّسُولَ فَقَدْ أَطَاعَ ٱللَّهَ ۖ
He who obeys the Messenger, then surely, he obeys God.” (4:80).
This general rule shows that the means of obedience to God and love for Him is the Holy Prophet, without whom it is neither possible to attain obedience to Him, nor His love. The means and mediation are among the bright realities of the Divine law and the religion of nature, as the Qur’ān says:
وَٱبْتَغُوٓا۟ إِلَيْهِ ٱلْوَسِيلَةَ
and seek the means to Him (5:35)
