Tawasul (invocation), intercession, Imploration and settling the dispute through a new clarification

The issues of Tawasul (invocation to anyone rather than Allah with divine permission), intercession and Imploration are the theological issues that different Islamic sects do not agree on. Some of the sects accept them, while others do not. And in some cases, those who believe in Tawasul and intercession are considered unbeliever and killing them is obligatory. Wahhabis are one of sects that have radical and extreme excommunicational opinions regarding Tawasul, intercession and Imploration, in a way that, by the use of takfir, they exclude most of the Muslims from the realm of Islam and legitimize killing them. Having scrutinized the concept of Tawasul, intercession and Imploration, The present research divides them into sixteen categories and makes clear the disputed areas. We need to say that, five of these sixteen categories are related to Tawasul which only one of the parts is a matter of dispute between Shia and Wahhabites. Five are related to intercession that one part is not agreed upon. And the other six categories concern imploration.
