Shi'a Muslims maintain that there is no difference in asking for prayer between the dead and the alive. Thus, they allow asking deceased figures for prayer. On the contrary, [[Wahhabis]] do not allow asking the deceased, even the [[Prophet (s)]], and consider it heretical. They believe that the dead cannot hear the alive and that none of the [[Sahaba of the Prophet (s)]] did this. Shi'a scholars, however, argue that by the will of God, the dead hear the alive, and there are accounts that Sahaba asked Prophet (s) to pray for them after his demise. | Shi'a Muslims maintain that there is no difference in asking for prayer between the dead and the alive.
