Note: <strong>The</strong> literal meaning of tartel is to recite in a slow measured<br />
tone, it also means to recite the Qur'\n correctly bearing in mind its<br />
rules <strong>and</strong> meanings. <strong>The</strong> latter meaning is by far the more important.<br />
All\h has saved this servant, <strong>and</strong> to save, allows him to intercede.<br />
He will seek out his friends; <strong>and</strong> stay a friend in their hour of need.<br />
All\h I in His limitless mercy will grant His prosperous servants the<br />
ability to intercede for their kith <strong>and</strong> kin who were to face <strong>Hell</strong> on<br />
account of their shortcomings.<br />
In a lengthy *ad|th it has been mentioned, ‘Upon oath of Him in<br />
Whose h<strong>and</strong>s my life remains, none of you can make a more<br />
determined effort in fighting for a right that has become apparent to<br />
him, than the Believers who will argue the case of their brothers, who<br />
have fallen into <strong>Hell</strong>, to All\h I on the day of Reckoning.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Believers will say, “O Lord they used to fast with us <strong>and</strong> they used<br />
to offer %al\h <strong>and</strong> perform pilgrimage.”<br />
It will be said to them “Take out those whom you recognize.” When<br />
going to extract them from <strong>Hell</strong> their bodies will be forbidden upon<br />
<strong>Hell</strong> (i.e. they will not be burned by <strong>Hell</strong>’s fire) Thus they will remove<br />
from <strong>Hell</strong> a large group of people.<br />
al-Bukh\r| <strong>and</strong> Muslim<br />
It is imperative that a person maintains ties with those servants of All\h<br />
I who will be granted the opportunity to intercede.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are two main points worth considering in regards to this issue.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y are:<br />
1. Those for whom intercession was made were in <strong>Hell</strong> because of<br />
their misdemeanours <strong>and</strong> only after they remain therein for some<br />
time, will intercession be accepted. Being in <strong>Hell</strong> for even “only a short<br />
time” is no small matter <strong>and</strong> must be avoided at all cost.<br />
