Grand Ayatollah Shirazi: Intercession of Infallibles is Conditional upon Pleasure of God Almighty

The daily scholarly meeting with Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Sadiq al-Hosseini al-Shirazi was held on Tuesday, the 2nd of Jumada al-Awwal. In this session, as in previous meetings, the Supreme Marja addressed the questions of attendees regarding various jurisprudential issues.

Grand Ayatollah Shirazi explained the nature of the intercession of the Infallibles (peace be upon them), stating that intercession is only for those whom God Almighty is pleased with.

His Eminence referred to verse 28 of Surah Al-Anbiya, which states that intercession is granted only by those who have received the pleasure of God Almighty.

He further stated that the Infallibles (peace be upon them) also adhere to Divine criteria for intercession and only intercede for individuals whom God Almighty is pleased with.
