Tawasul

Tawasul is an Islamic concept referring to seeking intercession or support through a noble person, divine attribute, or saint, to connect with Allah. It involves asking for help or blessings by invoking those whom Allah has honored, believing this act can bring one closer to divine mercy and favor. Tawasul is viewed by many Muslims as a respectful and spiritual way to strengthen their relationship with Allah, emphasizing humility and devotion. It differs from seeking direct prayer solely to Allah, serving instead as a means of fostering a deeper spiritual connection through revered figures or qualities.
