As Salamu 'Alaykum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu to all Muslims and
"As-salamu ala man ittiba al-huda" to our dear Wahabi/Ghayr Muqalid
friends.
Here is a counter-refutation of those who envy the hadith of Adam (alaih salam)'s Tawassul.
As Ahlus Sunnah knows for sure that there are Sahih "HADITHS" on the issue of Adam (alaih salam) seeking intercession of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) and also that Allah created the heavens and the worlds for the sake of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him). In this topic I will insha'Allah refute the Wahabi cult who have hidden the overwhelming "Authentication" on this magnificent hadith and tried to fool people in believing that the Hadith is actually Mawdho (Naudhobillah)
The people like Wahabi-defender (asim) and the other who abandoned the debate over Tawassul (i.e. Suhail) wrote an article on this hadith and tried to deceive people as if nobody has called this hadith authentic. Unlike Wahabis who hide the authentication from many great scholars we will present both sides of the coin so that public is absolutely sure that hadith is "SAHIH" and at minimum "Hasan li Ghayri due to Shawahid"
The Wahabis/Salafis/Khawarij brought forward proof from only these following scholars who directly put the hukm on hadith that It is "MAWDHO (Fabricated)"
1) Imam al-Dhahabi (rah) the student of Ibn Taymiyyah
2) Ibn Abdul Hadi, the fanatical student of Ibn Taymiyyah who cussed at Sheikh ul Islam Taqi ud-din al-Subki (rah) so he is not Hujjat unlike al-Dhahabi (rah)
3) Nasir ud-din Albani, again the chief innovator of Wahabis and he is not an authority by any means.
4) And finally they misquoted Ibn Taymiyyah and ignored the quote where Ibn Taymiyyah hinted towards authenticity of this report and also wrote in length that "Meaning of hadith is true that Allah created everything for the sake of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)
And Al-Bayhaqi, Al-Haythami, As-Suyuti, Az-Zarqani as it has been shown.(end) [Taken directly from systemoflife website]
Our reply: Neither Imam al-Bayhaqi (rah) nor as-Suyuti (rah) nor Az-Zarqani (rah) themselves called it "MAWDHO" so Wahabis are proven as liars and cheaters. They attributed a lie especially to Imam az-Zarqani (rah) by giving reference as (1/76) of his Sharh ala Muwahib and claiming that he said on same page:
فرد به عبد الرحمن، أي: لم يتابعه عليه غيره، فهو غريب مع ضعف راويه
“Abdur Rahman is alone in narrating this, meaning he is not followed by anyone, so it is Ghareeb with the weakness of its narrator”[Sharh of “Mawahib” vol 1 page 76]
This is nowhere found in Sharh of Muwahib (1/76) and nowhere in Sharh az-Zarqani has he "HIMSELF CALLED HADITH AS MAWDHO" the later is my point not the former, rather on Page # 86 Imam al-Qastallani (rah) and Imam az-Zarqani (rah) have only gone towards proving it Sahih., here is the scan proof:
Look closly Imam al-Qastalani (rah) is using this hadith from Mustadrak as "SHAHID (WITNESS) FORM" upon the hadith of Adam (a.s) seeing Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)'s Nur, he kept the authentication of Imam al-Hakim (rah) intact.
In Sharh of Muwahib Imam az-Zarqani (rah) says:
صححه الحاكم وأقره السبكي في شفاء السقام والقيني في فتاويه
Translation: It is declared "SAHIH" by al-Hakim (rah) "IMAM AL-SUBKI AGREED WITH HIM" in his Shifa us Siqaam and Imam al-Balqaini (rah) also (called it Sahih) in his Fatawa [Sharh ala Muwahib (1/86)]
*Front Page of Sharh al Muwahab by az-Zarqani, Vol.1 (rah)*
.
.
*Vol.1, Page # 86 which shows authentication without Jirah*
.
.
Wahabis are proven as cheats and forgers of Islamic literature, the wording which Wahabi defender and Suhail attributed to Vol.1, Page.76 of Sharh ala Muwahib is not to be found there nor that he called the hadith "MAWDHO" rather Imam al-Qastallani (rah) and Imam al-Zarqani (rah) both have shown it as "AUTHENTIC"
.
Anyways 3 are the scholars who called the hadith "MAWDHO" whereas Albani does not even deserve to be called as a Scholar so he is excluded.
Muhadith # 1 (Imam al-Hakim al-Naysaburi - Rahimuhullah)
حدّثنا أبو سعيد عمرو بن محمد بن منصور العدل ، ثنا أبو الحسن محمد بن إسحاق بن إبراهيم الحنظلي ، ثنا أبو الحارث عبد الله بن مسلم الفهري ، ثنا إسماعيل بن مسلمة ، أنبأ عبد الرحمن بن زيد بن أسلم ، عن أبيه، عن جدّه، عن عمر بن الخطاب رضي الله عنه قال:
قال رسول الله : «لَمّا اقْتَرَفَ آدَمُ الْخَطِيئَةَ قالَ: يا رَبّ أَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقّ مُحَمَّدٍ لما غَفَرْتَ لِي، فَقالَ الله: يا آدَمُ وَكَيْفَ عَرَفْتَ مُحَمّداً وَلَمْ أَخْلُقْهُ؟ قالَ: يا رَبّ لأَنَّكَ لَمّا خَلَقْتَنِي بِيَدِكَ وَنَفَخْتَ فِيَّ مِنْ روحِكَ رَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي فَرَأَيْتُ على قوائِمِ الْعَرْشِ مَكْتوباً لا إِلهَ إِلا الله مُحَمَّدٌ رَسولُ الله، فَعَلِمْتُ أَنَّكَ لَمْ تُضِفْ إِلى اسْمِكَ إِلا أَحَبَّ الْخَلْقِ إِلَيْكَ، فقالَ الله: صَدَقْتَ يا آدَمُ إِنَّهُ لأَحَبُّ الْخَلْقِ إِلَيَّ ادْعُني بِحَقِّهِ فَقَدْ غَفَرْتُ لَكَ وَلَوْلا مُحَمَّدٌ ما خَلَقْتُكَ
. هذا حديث صحيح الإسناد وهو أول حديث ذكرته لعبد الرحمن بن زيد بن أسلم في هذا الكتاب
.
Translation of red quote: Imam al-Hakim (rah) said: This hadith is "Sahih in it's chain" and it is the first hadith of Abdur Rahman ibn Zayd ibn Aslam which I mention in this book [al-Mustadrak ala Sahihayn (2:651, Hadith No. 4228)]
Now remember Imam al-Hakim (rah) knew very well about the weakness of Abdur Rahman, this is why he mentions that "IT IS THE FIRST HADITH FROM ABDUR RAHMAN WHICH I MENTION" this proves that he was not forgetful as Wahabis claim.
Imam al-Hakim (rah) also narrates another hadith from Ibn Abbas (ra) which mentions
فلولا محمد ما خلقت آدم ولولا محمد ما خلقت الجنة ولا النار، ولقد خلقت العرش على الماء فاضطرب فكتبت عليه لا إله إلا الله محمد رسول الله فسكن
Then Imam al-Hakim said:
هذا حديث صحيح الإسناد ولم يخرجاه
Translation: This hadith has "SAHIH CHAIN" but it has not been narrated (by Bukhari and Muslim)
Note: The hadith of Ibn Abbas (ra) is only shown as Shawahid over proof that Allah created everything for the sake of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)
Muhadith # 2 (The great lover of Prophet i.e. Qadhi Iyaadh - Rahimuhullah)
Imam Qadhi Iyaad (rah) narrated it under Chapter No. 3 of his magnificent and world renowned book on Seerah i.e. Ash-Shifa where he said:
(الباب الثالث فيما ورد من صحيح الأخبار و مشهورها)
Translation: Chapter-Three in which (I will narrate) “SAHIH AND FAMOUS” narrations
Plus in this chapter he also says that Abu Muhammad al-Makki and Abu al-Layth al-Samarqandi mention it; Qadi `Iyad says: "It is said that this hadith explains the verse: 'And Adam received words from his Lord and He relented towards him' (2:37)
- End Quote -
So this hadth is correctly proven as interpretation of Qur'an 2:37 from Imam al-Qadhi Iyaadh (rah) and he knew very well about the verses in Qur'an, now remember the incident of Adam (alaih salam) is mentioned twice and "SEPERATLY" in Qur'an. So the Taweel of Wahabis is false that only 1 dua was made by Adam (alaih salam).
Muhadith # 4
Imam Muhammad bin Yusuf al-Salihi (student of Imam al-Hafidh As-Suyuti) said about hadith from Maysra al-Fajr (RA)
وروى ابن الجوزي بسند جيد لا بأس به
Translation: This hadith is narrated by Ibn Jawzi (rah) and the chain of it is “STRONG” and there is nothing wrong in it [Subul al-Huda wal Rashhad, Volume No.1, Page No. 86 – Dar ul Kutb al iLmiyyah]
Ibn Taymiyyah said:
فهذا الحديث يؤيد الذي قبله وهما كالتفسير للأحاديث الصحيحة
Translation: This hadith corresponds to the hadith mentioned before (i.e. hadith of Umar ibn ul Khattab) These two are like the explanations (tafsir) of the authentic (Sahih) ahadith [Majmua al Fatawa, 2/150]
The righteous Imam of Makkah in past i.e. Sheikh al-Alawi al-Maliki al Makki (rah) said: This indicates that Ibn Taymiyya found the hadith sound enough to be considered a witness for other narrations (salih li al-istishhad wa al-i`tibar), because the forged (al-mawdu`) and the false (al-batil) are not taken as witness by the people of hadith
Wahabis actually misquoted from Fatawa of Ibn Taymiyyah, now here is the complete passage so that public can decide what Ibn Taymiyyah actually believed:
It is evident that Ibn Taymiyya considers the meaning of the creation of everything for the sake of the Prophet as true and correct, as he declares in his Majmu`at al-fatawa in the volume on tasawwuf (11:95-97):
محمد سيد ولد آدم. وأفضل الخلق؛ وأكرمهم عليه، ومن هنا قال من قال: إن الله خلق من أجله العالم، أو أنه لولا هو لما خلق عرشاً، ولا كرسياً، ولا سماء ولا أرضاً ولا شمساً ولا قمراً. لكن ليس هذا حديثاً عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلّم لا صحيحاً ولا ضعيفاً، ولم ينقله أحد من أهل العلم بالحديث، عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلّم، بل ولا يعرف عن الصحابة، بل هو كلام لا يدرى قائله. ويمكن أن يفسر بوجه صحيح كقوله: {وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمْ مَّا فِى السَّمَـوَتِ وَمَا فِى الأَْرْضِ } [الجاثية: 13] وقوله: { ْ وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الْفُلْكَ لِتَجْرِىَ فِى الْبَحْرِ بِأَمْرِهِ وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الأَنْهَـرَ وَسَخَّر لَكُمُ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ دَآئِبَينَ وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ وَآتَاكُم مِّن كُلِّ مَا سَأَلْتُمُوهُ وَإِن تَعُدُّواْ نِعْمَةَ اللَّهِ لاَ تُحْصُوهَا } [إبراهيم: 32 ـ 34] وأمثال ذلك من الآيات التي يبين فيها أنه خلق المخلوقات لبني آدم، ومعلوم أن لله فيها حكماً عظيمة غير ذلك،
وأعظم من ذلك، ولكن يبين لبني آدم ما فيها من المنفعة، وما أسبغ عليهم من النعمة.
فإذا قيل: فعل كذا لكذا لم يقتض أن لا يكون فيه حكمة أخرى. وكذلك قول القائل: لولا كذا ما خلق كذا، لا يقتضي أن لا يكون فيه حكم أخرى عظيمة، بل يقتضي إذا كان أفضل صالحي بني آدم محمد، وكانت خلقته غاية مطلوبة، وحكمة بالغة مقصودة [أعظم] من غيره، صار تمام الخلق، ونهاية الكمال، حصل بمحمد صلى الله عليه وسلّم.
والله خلق السموات والأرض وما بينهما في ستة أيام، وكان آخر الخلق يوم الجمعة، وفيه خلق آدم وهو آخر ما خلق، خلق يوم الجمعة بعد العصر في آخر يوم الجمعة، وسيد ولد آدم محمد ـ صلى الله عليه وسلّم ـ آدم فمن دونه تحت لوائه ـ قال صلى الله عليه وسلّم
«إني عند الله لمكتوب خاتم النبيين وإن آدم لمنجدل في طينته»، أي: كتبت نبوتي وأظهرت لما خلق آدم قبل نفخ الروح فيه كما يكتب الله رزق العبد وأجله وعمله وشقي أو سعيد إذا خلق الجنين قبل نفخ الروح فيه. فإذا كان الإنسان هو خاتم المخلوقات وآخرها
وهو الجامع لما فيها، وفاضله هو فاضل المخلوقات مطلقاً، ومحمد إنسان هذا العين؛ وقطب هذه الرحى، واقسام هذا الجمع كان كأنها غاية الغايات في المخلوقات، فما ينكر أن يقال: إنه لأجله خلقت جميعها، وأنه لولاه لما خلقت، فإذا فسر هذا الكلام ونحوه بما يدل عليه الكتاب والسنة
Reading this whole explanation proves that Ibn Taymiyyah considered the meaning of "ALLAH CREATING EVERYTHING FOR PROPHET" to be correct, as far as his verdict on hadith itself is concerned then for that I am quoting far bigger Muhaditheen who authenticated the hadith.
Plus Wahabis only quoted pseudo scholars like Albani and unworthy verdicts from islamqa.com on the hadith of Maysra al-Fajr (RA). What is worth of Albani & co as comapred to classical scholars who authenticated this hadith from Maysra al-Fajr (ra). Muhadith # 5Sheikh ul Islam Taqi ud-din al-Subki (rah) endorces al-Hakim's authentication (in Shifa' al-siqam fi ziyarat khayr al-anam p. 134-135) although Ibn Taymiyya's rejection and criticism of this hadith was known to him and he rejects it, as well as saying that Ibn Taymiyya's extreme weakening of Ibn Zayd is exaggerated.
Muhadith # 6
Imam al-Bulqini (rah) declares this hadith sound in his Fatawa [Refer to Sharh ala Muwahid (1/76)]
Muhadith # 7
Sheikh ul Islam, Imam Ibn Hajr al-Haythami (rah) endorced it as proof in his "al-Jawhr al Munazzam fi Ziyaratil Qabr il Muqaram (Page. 171-174)
Muhadith # 8
Imam al-Qastallani (rah) showed it as "VALID SHAHID" over hadiths which prove Nur of Prophet (Peace be upon him) [Refer to Sharh ala Muwahib, (1/86)]
And there are more proofs but hope these suffice.
Here is a counter-refutation of those who envy the hadith of Adam (alaih salam)'s Tawassul.
As Ahlus Sunnah knows for sure that there are Sahih "HADITHS" on the issue of Adam (alaih salam) seeking intercession of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) and also that Allah created the heavens and the worlds for the sake of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him). In this topic I will insha'Allah refute the Wahabi cult who have hidden the overwhelming "Authentication" on this magnificent hadith and tried to fool people in believing that the Hadith is actually Mawdho (Naudhobillah)

4) And finally they misquoted Ibn Taymiyyah and ignored the quote where Ibn Taymiyyah hinted towards authenticity of this report and also wrote in length that "Meaning of hadith is true that Allah created everything for the sake of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)
The outright Buhtaan on Muhaditheen by Wahabis
On the other hand the Wahabis as-usual lied when they claimed that these following scholars also called it "MAWDHO"And Al-Bayhaqi, Al-Haythami, As-Suyuti, Az-Zarqani as it has been shown.(end) [Taken directly from systemoflife website]
Our reply: Neither Imam al-Bayhaqi (rah) nor as-Suyuti (rah) nor Az-Zarqani (rah) themselves called it "MAWDHO" so Wahabis are proven as liars and cheaters. They attributed a lie especially to Imam az-Zarqani (rah) by giving reference as (1/76) of his Sharh ala Muwahib and claiming that he said on same page:

Authentication from "BIGGER MUHADITHEEN"
Now as compared to these, let us look at "BIGGER MUHADITHEEN AND FUQAHA" who
authenticated this hadith, remember when bigger Muhaditheen
authenticate any hadith then It becomes Sahih and the aqwaal of smaller
"LATER MUHADITHEEN" will be rejected.Muhadith # 1 (Imam al-Hakim al-Naysaburi - Rahimuhullah)
حدّثنا أبو سعيد عمرو بن محمد بن منصور العدل ، ثنا أبو الحسن محمد بن إسحاق بن إبراهيم الحنظلي ، ثنا أبو الحارث عبد الله بن مسلم الفهري ، ثنا إسماعيل بن مسلمة ، أنبأ عبد الرحمن بن زيد بن أسلم ، عن أبيه، عن جدّه، عن عمر بن الخطاب رضي الله عنه قال:

فلولا محمد ما خلقت آدم ولولا محمد ما خلقت الجنة ولا النار، ولقد خلقت العرش على الماء فاضطرب فكتبت عليه لا إله إلا الله محمد رسول الله فسكن
Explanation of Qur'an 2:37
"If I had not created Muhammad (salallaho alaihi wasalam) then I would
not have created Adam, If not for him I would not have created the
paradise and hell, When I made the throne on Water, it started to shake,
I wrote La Ilaha Il Allah Muhammad ur Rasul Ullah, due to which it
became still"Then Imam al-Hakim said:
هذا حديث صحيح الإسناد ولم يخرجاه
Translation: This hadith has "SAHIH CHAIN" but it has not been narrated (by Bukhari and Muslim)
Note: The hadith of Ibn Abbas (ra) is only shown as Shawahid over proof that Allah created everything for the sake of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)
Muhadith # 2 (The great lover of Prophet i.e. Qadhi Iyaadh - Rahimuhullah)

So the Taweel of Wahabis is false that only 1 dua was made by Adam (alaih salam).
Qur'an mentions 2 seperate incidents of repentence
Hadith of Adam (a.s)'s Tawassul is correct interpretation of Qur'an 2:37 which states:
"Then learnt Adam from his Lord words of inspiration, and his Lord Turned towards him; for He is Oft-Returning, Most Merciful" (Qur'an 2:37)
Please note that here Allah is talking about "ONLY ADAM LEARNING IT FROM LORD"
Whereas Qur'an mentions another seperate incident in the following way.
Qur'an states: They said: "Our Lord! We have wronged our own souls: If thou forgive us not and bestow not upon us Thy Mercy, we shall certainly be lost." (7:23)
Now here note at Allah talking about "THEY (I.E. BOTH ADAM AND EVE)" so Qur'an being best Sharh of itself proves that both incidents are seperate.
Remember even if someone interprets that both have same meaning then there could be 2 interpretations of same verse too and best way is not to reject any because according to sound principle "MASBAT TAKES OVER NAFI"
Muhadith # 3 (Hafidh Ibn Jawzi who was most strict in al-Jarh wat Ta'deel)
Ibn al-Jawzi also considers it sound (sahih) as he cites it in the first chapter of al-Wafa bi ahwal al-mustafa, in the introduction of which he says: "(In this book) I do not mix the sound hadith with the false," although he knew of `Abd al-Rahman ibn Zayd's weakness as a narrator; he also mentions the version of Maysarat al-Fajr whereby the Prophet says: "When satan deceived Adam and Eve, they repented and sought intercession to Allah with my name"; Ibn al-Jawzi also says in the chapter concerning the Prophet's superiority over the other Prophets in the same book: "Part of the exposition of his superiority to other Prophets is the fact that Adam asked his Lord through the sanctity (hurmat) of Muhammad that He relent towards him, as we have already mentioned."
"Then learnt Adam from his Lord words of inspiration, and his Lord Turned towards him; for He is Oft-Returning, Most Merciful" (Qur'an 2:37)
Please note that here Allah is talking about "ONLY ADAM LEARNING IT FROM LORD"
Whereas Qur'an mentions another seperate incident in the following way.

The Hadith of Maysra al-Fajr (RA)
The Hadith of Maysara (ra) is the following:
وقد رواه أبو الحسن بن بشران من طريق الشيخ أبي الفرج بن الجوزي في (الوفا، بفضائل المصطفى) صلى الله عليه وسلّم: حدّثنا أبو جعفر محمد بن عمرو، حدّثنا أحمد بن إسحاق بن صالح، حدّثنا محمد ابن صالح، حدّثنا محمد بن سنان العوفي، حدّثنا إبراهيم بن طهمان عن يزيد بن ميسرة، عن عبد الله بن سفيان، عن ميسرة قال قلت:
يا رسول الله، متى كنت نبياً؟ قال: «لَمَّا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ الأرْضَ وَاسْتَوَى إلَى السَّمَاءِ فَسَوَّاهنَّ سَبْعَ سَمَواتٍ وَخَلَقَ العَرْشَ كَتَبَ عَلَى سَاقِ العَرْشِ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ ااِ خَاتَمُ الأنْبِيَاءِ وَخَلَقَ اللَّهُ الجَنَّةَ الَّتي أسْكَنَهَا آدَمَ وَحَوَّاءَ فَكَتَبَ اسْمِي عَلَى الأبْوَابِ وَالأوْرَاقِ وَالقِبَابِ وَالخِيَامِ وَآدَمُ بَيْنَ الرُّوحِ والجَسَدِ، فَلَمَّا أَحْيَاهُ الله تَعَالَى نَظَرَ إلَى العَرْشِ فَرَأَى اسمِي فأخْبَرَهُ ااُ أنَّهُ سَيِّدُ وَلَدِكَ، فَلَمَّا غَرَّهُمَا الشَّيْطَانُ تَابَا وَاسْتَشْفَعَا بِاسْمِي إِلَيْهِ
Translation: Narrated by Maysara (ra), I asked: "O Messenger of Allah, when were you [first] a Prophet?" He replied: "When Allah created the earth ‘Then turned He to the heaven, and fashioned it as seven heavens’(2:29), and created the Throne, He wrote on the leg of the Throne: "Muhammad the Messenger of Allah is the Seal of Prophets" (Muhammadun Rasûlullâhi Khâtamu al-Anbiyâ'). Then Allah created the Garden in which He made Adam and Hawwa' dwell, and He wrote my name on the gates, its tree-leaves, its domes and tents, at a time when Adam was still between the spirit and the body. When Allah Most High instilled life into him he looked at the Throne and saw my name, whereupon Allah informed him that 'He [Muhammad SAWS] is the liege-lord of all your descendants.' When Satan deceived them, they repented and sought intercession to Allah with my name."[Ibn Jawzi in Al Wafa bi Ahwaal lil Mustafa, Page No. 26, Published by Dar ul Kutab al Ilmiyyah]

يا رسول الله، متى كنت نبياً؟ قال: «لَمَّا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ الأرْضَ وَاسْتَوَى إلَى السَّمَاءِ فَسَوَّاهنَّ سَبْعَ سَمَواتٍ وَخَلَقَ العَرْشَ كَتَبَ عَلَى سَاقِ العَرْشِ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ ااِ خَاتَمُ الأنْبِيَاءِ وَخَلَقَ اللَّهُ الجَنَّةَ الَّتي أسْكَنَهَا آدَمَ وَحَوَّاءَ فَكَتَبَ اسْمِي عَلَى الأبْوَابِ وَالأوْرَاقِ وَالقِبَابِ وَالخِيَامِ وَآدَمُ بَيْنَ الرُّوحِ والجَسَدِ، فَلَمَّا أَحْيَاهُ الله تَعَالَى نَظَرَ إلَى العَرْشِ فَرَأَى اسمِي فأخْبَرَهُ ااُ أنَّهُ سَيِّدُ وَلَدِكَ، فَلَمَّا غَرَّهُمَا الشَّيْطَانُ تَابَا وَاسْتَشْفَعَا بِاسْمِي إِلَيْهِ
Translation: Narrated by Maysara (ra), I asked: "O Messenger of Allah, when were you [first] a Prophet?" He replied: "When Allah created the earth ‘Then turned He to the heaven, and fashioned it as seven heavens’(2:29), and created the Throne, He wrote on the leg of the Throne: "Muhammad the Messenger of Allah is the Seal of Prophets" (Muhammadun Rasûlullâhi Khâtamu al-Anbiyâ'). Then Allah created the Garden in which He made Adam and Hawwa' dwell, and He wrote my name on the gates, its tree-leaves, its domes and tents, at a time when Adam was still between the spirit and the body. When Allah Most High instilled life into him he looked at the Throne and saw my name, whereupon Allah informed him that 'He [Muhammad SAWS] is the liege-lord of all your descendants.' When Satan deceived them, they repented and sought intercession to Allah with my name."[Ibn Jawzi in Al Wafa bi Ahwaal lil Mustafa, Page No. 26, Published by Dar ul Kutab al Ilmiyyah]
Refuting Wahabis from their own "Sheikh ul Islam"
Imam Muhammad bin Yusuf al-Salihi (student of Imam al-Hafidh As-Suyuti) said about hadith from Maysra al-Fajr (RA)
وروى ابن الجوزي بسند جيد لا بأس به
Translation: This hadith is narrated by Ibn Jawzi (rah) and the chain of it is “STRONG” and there is nothing wrong in it [Subul al-Huda wal Rashhad, Volume No.1, Page No. 86 – Dar ul Kutb al iLmiyyah]
Ibn Taymiyyah said:
فهذا الحديث يؤيد الذي قبله وهما كالتفسير للأحاديث الصحيحة
Translation: This hadith corresponds to the hadith mentioned before (i.e. hadith of Umar ibn ul Khattab) These two are like the explanations (tafsir) of the authentic (Sahih) ahadith [Majmua al Fatawa, 2/150]
The righteous Imam of Makkah in past i.e. Sheikh al-Alawi al-Maliki al Makki (rah) said: This indicates that Ibn Taymiyya found the hadith sound enough to be considered a witness for other narrations (salih li al-istishhad wa al-i`tibar), because the forged (al-mawdu`) and the false (al-batil) are not taken as witness by the people of hadith
Wahabis actually misquoted from Fatawa of Ibn Taymiyyah, now here is the complete passage so that public can decide what Ibn Taymiyyah actually believed:
It is evident that Ibn Taymiyya considers the meaning of the creation of everything for the sake of the Prophet as true and correct, as he declares in his Majmu`at al-fatawa in the volume on tasawwuf (11:95-97):
Lightning upon Wahabiyyah from Ibn Taymiyyah
محمد سيد ولد آدم. وأفضل الخلق؛ وأكرمهم عليه، ومن هنا قال من قال: إن الله خلق من أجله العالم، أو أنه لولا هو لما خلق عرشاً، ولا كرسياً، ولا سماء ولا أرضاً ولا شمساً ولا قمراً. لكن ليس هذا حديثاً عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلّم لا صحيحاً ولا ضعيفاً، ولم ينقله أحد من أهل العلم بالحديث، عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلّم، بل ولا يعرف عن الصحابة، بل هو كلام لا يدرى قائله. ويمكن أن يفسر بوجه صحيح كقوله: {وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمْ مَّا فِى السَّمَـوَتِ وَمَا فِى الأَْرْضِ } [الجاثية: 13] وقوله: { ْ وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الْفُلْكَ لِتَجْرِىَ فِى الْبَحْرِ بِأَمْرِهِ وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الأَنْهَـرَ وَسَخَّر لَكُمُ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ دَآئِبَينَ وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ وَآتَاكُم مِّن كُلِّ مَا سَأَلْتُمُوهُ وَإِن تَعُدُّواْ نِعْمَةَ اللَّهِ لاَ تُحْصُوهَا } [إبراهيم: 32 ـ 34] وأمثال ذلك من الآيات التي يبين فيها أنه خلق المخلوقات لبني آدم، ومعلوم أن لله فيها حكماً عظيمة غير ذلك،
وأعظم من ذلك، ولكن يبين لبني آدم ما فيها من المنفعة، وما أسبغ عليهم من النعمة.
فإذا قيل: فعل كذا لكذا لم يقتض أن لا يكون فيه حكمة أخرى. وكذلك قول القائل: لولا كذا ما خلق كذا، لا يقتضي أن لا يكون فيه حكم أخرى عظيمة، بل يقتضي إذا كان أفضل صالحي بني آدم محمد، وكانت خلقته غاية مطلوبة، وحكمة بالغة مقصودة [أعظم] من غيره، صار تمام الخلق، ونهاية الكمال، حصل بمحمد صلى الله عليه وسلّم.
والله خلق السموات والأرض وما بينهما في ستة أيام، وكان آخر الخلق يوم الجمعة، وفيه خلق آدم وهو آخر ما خلق، خلق يوم الجمعة بعد العصر في آخر يوم الجمعة، وسيد ولد آدم محمد ـ صلى الله عليه وسلّم ـ آدم فمن دونه تحت لوائه ـ قال صلى الله عليه وسلّم
«إني عند الله لمكتوب خاتم النبيين وإن آدم لمنجدل في طينته»، أي: كتبت نبوتي وأظهرت لما خلق آدم قبل نفخ الروح فيه كما يكتب الله رزق العبد وأجله وعمله وشقي أو سعيد إذا خلق الجنين قبل نفخ الروح فيه. فإذا كان الإنسان هو خاتم المخلوقات وآخرها
وهو الجامع لما فيها، وفاضله هو فاضل المخلوقات مطلقاً، ومحمد إنسان هذا العين؛ وقطب هذه الرحى، واقسام هذا الجمع كان كأنها غاية الغايات في المخلوقات، فما ينكر أن يقال: إنه لأجله خلقت جميعها، وأنه لولاه لما خلقت، فإذا فسر هذا الكلام ونحوه بما يدل عليه الكتاب والسنة
Translation:Muhammad is the Chief of the Children of Adam, the Best of Creation, the noblest of them in the sight of Allah. This
is why some have said that "Allah created the Universe due to him," or
that "Were it not for him, He would have neither created a Throne, nor a
Footstool, nor a heaven, earth, sun or moon." However, this is not a
hadith on the authority of the Prophet, neither is it sahih nor is it
weak and it has not been narrated by any person of knowledge in hadith
either from Prophet or Sahaba but it may be explained from a correct aspect...
Since the best of the righteous of the children of Adam is Muhammad, creating him was a desirable end of deep-seated purposeful wisdom, more than for anyone else, and hence the completion of creation and the fulfillment of perfection was attained with Muhammad, may Allah Exalted bless him and grant him peace... The Chief of the Children of Adam is Muhammad, may Allah Exalted bless him and grant him peace, Adam and his children being under his banner. He, may Allah Exalted bless him and grant him peace, said: "Truly, I was written as the Seal of the Prophets with Allah, when Adam was going to-and-fro in his clay," i.e. that my prophethood was decreed and manifested when Adam was created but before the breathing of the Spirit into him, just as Allah decrees the livelihood, lifespan, deeds and misery or happiness of the slave when He creates the embryo but before the breathing of the Spirit into it.
Since man is the seal and last of all creation, and its microcosm, and since the best of man is thus the best of all creation absolutely, then Muhammad, being the Pupil of the Eye, the Axis of the Mill, and the Distributor to the Collective, is as it were the Ultimate Purpose from amongst all the purposes of creation. Thus it cannot be denied to say that "Due to him all of this was created", or that "Were it not for him, all this would not have been created...

On going list of top ranking Muhaditheen!
...so if statements like this are thus explained according to what the Book and the Sunna indicate, it is acceptable. [Majmua al Fatawa, Volume No. 11, Page Nos. 95-97]Reading this whole explanation proves that Ibn Taymiyyah considered the meaning of "ALLAH CREATING EVERYTHING FOR PROPHET" to be correct, as far as his verdict on hadith itself is concerned then for that I am quoting far bigger Muhaditheen who authenticated the hadith.
Plus Wahabis only quoted pseudo scholars like Albani and unworthy verdicts from islamqa.com on the hadith of Maysra al-Fajr (RA). What is worth of Albani & co as comapred to classical scholars who authenticated this hadith from Maysra al-Fajr (ra). Muhadith # 5Sheikh ul Islam Taqi ud-din al-Subki (rah) endorces al-Hakim's authentication (in Shifa' al-siqam fi ziyarat khayr al-anam p. 134-135) although Ibn Taymiyya's rejection and criticism of this hadith was known to him and he rejects it, as well as saying that Ibn Taymiyya's extreme weakening of Ibn Zayd is exaggerated.
Muhadith # 6
Imam al-Bulqini (rah) declares this hadith sound in his Fatawa [Refer to Sharh ala Muwahid (1/76)]
Muhadith # 7
Sheikh ul Islam, Imam Ibn Hajr al-Haythami (rah) endorced it as proof in his "al-Jawhr al Munazzam fi Ziyaratil Qabr il Muqaram (Page. 171-174)
Muhadith # 8
Imam al-Qastallani (rah) showed it as "VALID SHAHID" over hadiths which prove Nur of Prophet (Peace be upon him) [Refer to Sharh ala Muwahib, (1/86)]
And there are more proofs but hope these suffice.
Conclusion with Istighatha of Imam al-Qastallani
So all pseudo points raised by Wahabi cult have been refuted.
a) They mix Qur'anic verses together and claim that hadith of Adam (a.s)'s Tawassul cannot be interpretation of 2:37. It has been proven from Qur'an that 2:37 & 7:23 mention different incidents and It was proven from Qadhi Iyaadh (rah) that Adam (a's)'s Tawassul is valid interpretation of 2:37
b) Wahabis tried to hide the "MASSIVE AUTHENTICATION" over this hadith from classical scholars, so It has been proven above from 8 classical scholars higher in status than Ibn Taymiyyah let alone Albani Bidati that the Hadith is Authentic.
c) Different Shawahid over this hadith are shown and the chains are totally different too, so this proves that both hadith of Umar bin Khttab (ra) and Maysra al-Fajr (ra) are "AUTHENTIC" and at minimum they should be called "Hasan due to different routes which authenticate one another"
d) Remember that I have proven "HUKM" directly upon hadith, so Wahabis cannot misuse the books of Jirah wa-t Tadeel to show weakness of Abdur Rahman bin Zayd bin Aslam or anyone, because Muhaditheen do not just look at one chain rather they look at Qur'an and Hadith as a whole, which is why they authenticated this hadith beautifully in-spite of knowing that certain narrator is weak in one chain but it has different turaq which establish it to be Sahih

An important Clarification
Before one of those Wahabis jump off thinking he has found a mistake in
my reference to az-Zarqani, I want to clarify that Zarqani did not
"CALL IT MAWDHO" as Wahabis wanted us to believe nor did he consider
this report as "DA'EEF" but rather at one place he kept authentication
of classical scholars intact and at another he "CALLED IT GHAREEB EVEN
DUE TO WEAKNESS" ... Remember Gharib is not Da'eef in Hadith
methodology.
Here is the scan proof of (1/120) of Sharh ala Muwahib from Dar ul Kutb al iLmiyyah.
.
Look above at the red highlighted part, there Imam al-Qastalani (rah) even while quoting al-Bayhaqi did not mention the weakness, this proves that Imam al-Qastalani (rah) endorsed this hadith and kept authentication of Imam al-Hakim (rah) intact.
Below the beautiful proof which az-Zarqani showed from Imam al-Dhahabi (rah) proves that even from Dalail un Nabuwah of Imam al-Bayhaqi (rah) the hadith remains authentic:
az-Zarqani narrates:
قال فيه الحافظ الذ هبي: عليك به فإنه كله هدى ونور
Translation: In this regard (i.e. Regarding Dalail an Nabuwah of Imam al-Bayhaqi) Hafidh al-Dhahabi (rah) said: Whatever is in it is "TOTAL GUIDANCE AND NUR" [Sharh ala Muwahib (1/120)]
Look how cleverly Wahabis ignored this which proves that even al-Dhahabi (rah) had to accept this hadith as Authentic and so did Imam al-Bayhaqi even if he mentioned weakness of Abdur Rahman bin Zayd bin Aslam.

This is why Imam al-Bayhaqi (rah) himself mentioned in Muqadma of Dalail an Nabuwah:
Imam al-Bayhaqi (rah) said:
وعادتي في كتبي المصنفة في الأصول والفروع الاقتصار من الأخبار على ما يصح منها دون ما لا يصح أو التمييز بين ما يصح منها ومالا يصح ليكون الناظر فيها من أهل السنة على بصيرة مما يقع الاعتماد عليه لا يجد من زاغ قلبه من أهل البدع عن قبول الأخبار مغمزاً فيما اعتمد عليه أهل السنة من الآثار
Translation: My procedure is that I rely only on “SAHIH REPORTS” from all the books on Usool and Faroh and I have “REJECTED THOSE WHICH ARE NOT SAHIH” and my way is to “Distinguish sahih from non-Sahih” so anyone from Ahlus Sunnah who has sight over reports can “TRUST THEM” and one from Ahlul Bidah who has disease in his heart will consider such reports as “LOW GRADED” which have been accepted by Ahlus Sunnah. [Dalail al Nabuwah (1/47)]
Plus look at az-Zarqani again, he after quoting authentication of al-Hakim said: آي (i.e. Yes/Agreed)" [Sharh ala Muwahib (1/120)]
Allah hu Akbar, so the lies of Wahabis from az-Zarqani have been totally refuted!

Ibn Jawzi's magnificent "ISTADLAL"
Wahabis are totally ignorant in Usool i.e. Muhaditheen look at Qur'an
and Sunnah as a whole and they consider hadiths to be "SAHIH" even if
there is some weakness in a narrator.
Now Here is slap on the face of Wahabis from Ibn Jawzi (rah) who was actually the most strict scholar on al-Jarh w'at Tadeel, this point which I am raising will be ignored by Wahabis whereas Imam Ibn Jawzi (rah) has "INDEED CONSIDERED THIS HADITH AUTHENTIC AND DONE ISTADLAL FROM IT"
I have mentioned before that Imam Ibn Jawzi (rah) mentioned both the hadith of Umar bin Khattab (ra) and also Maysra al Fajr (ra) in "FIRST CHAPTER OF AL-WAFA" and in Muqadma of al-Wafa he has said that "HE HAS NOT MIXED SAHIH REPORTS WITH FALSE ONES"
But let's see what Ibn Jawzi (rah) says later in the book while proving Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) superior to all Prophets!
ومن بيان فضله على الأنبياء : أن آدم سأل ربَّه بحرمة محمد أن يتوب عليه، كما ذكرنا
Translation: "Part of explaining the superiority of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) to other Prophets is that "ADAM ASKED HIS LORD THROUGH THE HURMAT OF MUHAMMAD (PEACE BE UPON HIM)" and then repented to Him, as I have already mentioned."[Ibn Jawzi in al-Wafa, Page # 365, Published by Dar ul Kutb al iLmiyyah, Beirut, Lebanon]
Look at Istdalal of Hafidh Ibn Jawzi (rah), now remember Hafidh Ibn Jawzi being as strict as he was could have never done Istadal by using "MAWDHO" hadiths, so Wahabis should do Matam over their blunders now!!!

Another nail in Wahabi coffin from al-Muwahib
Wahabis misused al-Muwahib written by great Muhadith called Imam
al-Qastallani (rah) and Sharh ala Muwahib by Imam az-Zarqani (rah)
Now here is scan proof that Imam al-Qastallani (rah) "DIRECTLY CALLED THE HADITH OF ADAM (A.S) AS SAHIH" and az-Zarqani "KEPT AUTHENTICATION INTACT"
Imam al-Qasttalani (rah) authenticating hadith of Adam (a.s)'s Tawassul in this passage it starts from previous Page # 219 which states: The Tawasssul, Seeking help, Shaf'at, Tawajju is "PROVEN IN ALL CONDITIONS, WHETHER BEFORE YOUR CREATION OR AFTER IT" as is mentioned in Tehqeeq al-nasra and also Masabah al-Zalam ...Then on Page # 220 Imam al-Qastalani (rah) brings the hadith of Adam (alaih salam) as: "IT HAS COME IN SAHIH (HADITH) FROM PROPHET (PEACE BE UPON HIM)" that the Prophet (Peace be upon him) said: When Adam (a.s) made the mistake he said: O my Lord, I am asking you to forgive me for the sake of Muhammad (Peace be upon him)... (till the end of Hadith)
Below even Imam al-Zarqani kept the authentication of Imam al-Qastallani (rah) "INTACT"... then on Page # 222 Imam al-Qastallani (rah) mentions his own practice that he called asked Prophet (Peace be upo him) "FOR HELP FROM MAKKAH" .. Yes hear it again Makkah not Madina ... Allah hu Akbar [Refer to Sharh ala Muwahib (12/220-222)]
