Wahhabis with referring to a Hadith from the Holy Prophet claim that if you want something, ask God directly and do not seek help from the any mankind, whether alive or dead. While this narration does not deny seeking help from other than God; Rather, this narration proves the principle of reliance on God; But it does not negate seeking help from other than God. In other words, these two acts overlap. These are not two independent powers and do not contradict each other. In other words if we seek help from others, it refers to seeking from God and it is not independent from God. Therefore, people who ask for help from the saints know that the saints are not independent from God and it does not lead to Shirk. The Qur'anic verses and narrations also prove seeking help from other than God independently. For example, the prophet Suleiman asked for help from his companions to prove his prophethood. Also, there are some narrations showing that if you get lost in a dessert ask help from people. the Wahhabis ignoring these proves accuse Muslims to Shirk.
