Without a doubt, our Prophet ﷺ will have the greatest honor on the Day of Judgement with regards to Shafā‘ah; as he will be allowed to intercede on behalf of his entire nation. But even this intercession is sought only from Allāh - not from the Prophet ﷺ! It is because of this, that after the adhān, we supplicate, "O Allāh, the Lord of this Perfect Call, and the Established Prayer, grant Muḥammad the Wasīlah and Distinction (i.e., the Highest rank in Paradise) and raise him to the Praised Station (Al-Maqām Al-Maḥmūd, which is the permission to intercede for his nation) that You have promised him.” [Bukhāri] Likewise, the Ṣaḥābah, who were the most knowledgeable of this nation, never asked the Prophet ﷺ after his death to intercede for them, since they knew that after the Prophet's ﷺ death, it is not possible to request the Prophet ﷺ to do anything. If this is the case of the Prophet ﷺ, what then is the status of anyone else in comparison to his status?
