▪️Aqeedah benefit derived from this Aayah:
This Aayah contains evidence for two of the three forms of legislated Tawassul:
1- Seeking Tawassul by Allah's Names/Attributes => ربنا {Our Lord}
2. Seeking Tawassul through one's own righteous deeds = “we have believed, so forgive us” (i.e. Due to our Eman - which is a righteous deed - we seek Your forgiveness and protection).
*The third form of Tawassul is requesting a righteous Muslim to make du'a on your behalf.
