44قُل لِلَّهِ الشَّفاعَةُ جَميعًا ۖ لَهُ مُلكُ السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ ۖ ثُمَّ إِلَيهِ تُرجَعونَAli UnalSay: “To God exclusively belongs the whole authority to intercede (whether He grants any being permission to intercede with Him or not).1 To Him alone belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth. Then, to Him you will be returned.”For a similar meaning of intercession, see sūrah 34: 23, note 13. Here there is also a reference to appealing to God to accept our prayers for some of His servants to be placed with Him.
