“On that day they will follow the caller in whom is no crookedness...

“On that day they will follow the caller in whom is no crookedness, and the voices shall be low before (the grandeur of) the Beneficent (Allah), so that you hear not but a faint murmur.” There are some persons in the world who turn their backs on the missionaries of Allah, but, on the Day of Hereafter, they cannot be helped but to follow.

In this holy verse, the Qur’an says: “On that day they will follow the caller in whom is no crookedness…” That is, all men will rise from their graves and no one will have any ability to oppose Him. The order of this caller, whoever he may be, will be so operative that nobody can oppose it.

Concerning this time, the verse continues saying: “…and the voices shall be low before (the grandeur of) the Beneficent (Allah), so that you hear not but a faint murmur.” This silence of voices will be either for the domination of the grandeur of Allah over the resurrection plain toward which everybody humble himself, or for the fear of reckoning and the result of the worldly deeds, or both of them.

“On that Day shall no intercession avail save (that of) him to whom the Beneficent (Allah) gives leave and whose word He is pleased with.” Since the denial of intercession contrasts the contents of the verses of the Qur’an and the Islamic traditions, and it causes the despair of those believers who are sinful, and also accepting the unconditional and unrestrained intercession causes that the wrong doers become more daring, which is opposite to Allah’s justice, then the Qur’an has assigned some control and prescriptions for intercession.

From the viewpoint of the Qur’an, intercession is a ray of hope for the sinners. It is a means of their communication with the saints of Allah and following them. Intercession is done by the leave of Allah, and the persons who care to intercede are only those believers who are in the path of Monotheism and have a proper logic and rightful notions and whose statements are acceptable with Allah.

Therefore, there is an exact process in intercession both for the intercessor and the person who will be interceded. It is so that the Qur’an in this holy verse says: “On that Day shall no intercession avail save (that of) him to whom the Beneficent (Allah) gives leave and whose word He is pleased with.” For this reason, the Qur’an counts the intercession of idols futile for the idolaters.
