People who claim to have Karamahs and miracles 9-The answer to a question about people who claim to have Karamahs and miracles:From `Abdul-`Aziz ibn `Abdullah ibn Baz to our dear brother, may Allah protect you. May Allah's Peace, Mercy, and Blessings be upon you.With reference to your letter, dated 25/9/1973, in which you ask for help to be able to come to Al-Madinah Al-Munawwarah, you mentioned a supplication in the letter and said that it is a blessed supplication full of Karamahs and miracles which Allah gives to His believing servants. You said that this supplication is extremely powerful to the extent that if it is recited on fire, it will be extinguished, and if it is recited on flowing water, it will become stagnant.I would like to inform you that this supplication is not authentically reported from the Prophet (peace be upon him). As far as we know, it is baseless. Moreover, it includes impermissible kind of Tawassul (supplicating to Allah in the name of someone or something). The lawful Tawassul is to supplicate to Allah (Exalted be He) by His Names. Allah (Glorified be He) says: And (all) the Most Beautiful Names belong to Allâh, so call on Him by them Likewise, (Part No. 1; Page No. 442) it is permissible to beseech Allah by your good deeds, including the best of them, i.e. Tawhid (belief in the Oneness of Allah). The most beneficial supplications are those reported to be said by the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), not those invented by people, as the supplication you referred to. It is obligatory to learn the necessary religious knowledge, asking the scholars about what seems difficult for you and keep away from what contradicts the teachings of the Chosen Prophet (peace be upon him).As for your desire to come to Al-Madinah while you do not have enough money, I advise you to adhere to righteousness wherever you are. Allah does not make offering Hajj obligatory except for the people who have the capacity to offer Hajj. Allah (Exalted be He) says: And Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah) to the House (Ka‘bah) is a duty that mankind owes to Allâh, for those who are able to undertake the journey. So, you are excused from it and when you have enough money, you can came to the holy land, for Allah does not burden someone beyond their scope. May Allah's Peace, Mercy, and Blessings be upon you. Taken from: https://www.alifta.gov.sa/

Fabricated Karamahs

False Karamahs

Q: It is said that there are chosen men who can perform extraordinary events such as coming to perform Hajj without using any means of transportation or attending a Funeral Prayer in Makkah while living far away from there. Is the wind made subservient to lead them wherever they want? Please, advise.


(Part No. 6; Page No. 409)


A: Such things are baseless in Shari`ah and are superstitious invented by some people. Some Sufis pretend to have Karamahs (extraordinary events performed by a pious person), rendering them able to reach Makkah without any means of transportation; but this is surely falsehood. Or, they would have contact with Jinn or worship them, so that the Jinn would carry them to Makkah or any other place, as stated by Shaykh Abu Al-`Abbas Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah be merciful with him) and other scholars. To summarize, such matters are just superstitious beliefs held by some Sufis and those like them, who falsely allege to be Awliya' (the pious worshippers of Allah or holy persons) possessing Karamahs. But, in actual fact, they are the Awliya' (votaries) of Satan, that is why the Jinn carry them from one place to another. Thus, when these Sufis worship and serve the Jinn, they receive their help in moving from one place to another in return.

فتاوى ابن باز

تصفح برقم المجلد ; المجلد السادس ; كرامات زائفة كرامات زائفة س: يقال إن هناك رجالاً من رجال الخطوة وهم يحجون بدون وسيلة مواصلات، ويقال إنهم يحضرون الجنازة في مكة وهم أصلاً موجودون في منطقة بعيدة جدًّا، فهل سخرت لهم الريح مثلاً في تنقلاتهم؟ نرجو التوجيه. (الجزء رقم : 6، الصفحة رقم: 409) جـ: هذه الأمور لا أصل لها في الشرع المطهر وهي من خرافات بعض الناس الباطلة، وقد يدعيها بعض الصوفية الذين يزعمون أن لهم كرامات يستطيعون بها أن يصلوا إلى مكة من دون سيارات ولا طائرات ولا غير ذلك، وهذا من خرافاتهم وكذبهم، وقد يكون لبعضهم اتصال بالجن وعبادة الجن فتحمله الجن إلى مكة وغيرها، كما ذكر ذلك شيخ الإسلام أبو العباس ابن تيمية رحمه الله وغيره من أهل العلم، فالخلاصة أن هذه الأخبار إما أن تكون من قبيل الخرافات التي يقولها بعض الصوفية وأشباههم من الذين يزعمون أنهم أولياء ولهم كرامات وهم كاذبون في ذلك، وإما أن يكون من أولياء الشيطان فتحمله الشياطين وتنقله من مكان إلى مكان؛ لأنه عبدها وأطاعها فلما خدمها وعبدها خدمته في النقل من مكان إلى مكان. http://www.alifta.net/Fatawa/FatawaChapters.aspx?View=Page&PageID=850&PageNo=1&BookID=4
