Bismillahi rahmani raheem, assalamu alaikum
Today I received the best news possible, a brother asked for some advice about a Umrah he was going, after he finished he wrote to me with some excellent news, I will let our correspondence tell everything.
Request: As Salam alikum Sheik, I plan to go to Umrah inshaAllah on Sunday for 15 days. Please pray for me and please advise me on what to ask for at Kaba shareef and rawda shareef.
Since all my friends circle are born and brought up in deobandi environment and I am too, I fail to explain the Akida of ahle sunnah. I am afraid and don’t have confidence to explain how we can ask from Huzoor(saw).
I also took your advice on asking and help from Malaika and I was surprised of the result.
Please pray for me for the knowledge to defend myself.
Regards,

Ask Malai’kat al Kursi and Allah’s highest Mala’ikah to accompany you on your Umrah, also ask them to race ahead of you on this Journey and prepare the way for you.
Ask them to stand between you and any fitnah, and to stand between you and the fitnah of the Deobandi’s.
Ask Allah to place His hand over you and Your Umrah, and the fitnah of the Deobandi’s.
Ask the Mala’ikah to act with you in every step of your Umrah, to do Tawwaf with you, Salat, Dua, ask them to perfect your Dua before they raise it up to Allah.
Everything you need on this Journey ask the Mala’ikah to help you with it, they will walk with you every step of the way and be with you 24 hours a day, because you are going to the best places on earth you will find they will guide your perception to help you see what you need when the time comes, so keep them in your mind as you perform everything and do things throughout the day.
Don’t be shy of talking to them like one of your friends, as you do this the light with you will increase from day to day.
At the Kaaba place your hand on it and make Dua to Allah for everything that comes to mind, if you keep company with the Mala’ikah they will help you see what you need to ask, the same will happen at the Rawda, so be vigilant of keeping their company it is a wasila to Allah and Allah said in the Quran use any wasila to me.
“O ye who believe! Do your duty to Allah, seek the means of approach (wasila) unto Him, and strive (with might and main) in His cause: that ye may prosper”. (5:35)
Jazak Allah khairan brother wa Barak Allah feek.

Please remember me in your duas. JazakAllahu khairan.

Barak Allah feek brother you couldn’t have told me anything better, It was Mala’ikat al Arsh that I asked to help you on your Umra brother. Your forgetfulness was from Allah to let you know who was with you and so that I would also know, when you told me, that Allah and His Mala’ikah answered my request.
When you talk to them your consciousness connects to them but the veils of Barazakh are between you and them so you don’t see them, but the more you focus on them like you did with Umrah and each act in it your perception gradually gets used to seeing or sensing them, so the Mala’ikah eventually inspired you in this way to let you know who was walking with you and that the Umra was accepted by Allah.
Mala’ikat al Arsh brother are the highest Mala’ikah with Allah, they are like Jibril and Mikail (as) and the honored guests of Ibrahim (as) mentioned in the Quran.
Alhamdulillah it was a blessed Umrah brother, if you can continue to talk to the Mala’ikah in life they will walk with you like they did during Umrah, this is their Ihsan to take everything you say to them seriously and act upon it, if you could see them you would see them helping in everything you ask spiritually and indeed Allah will show you everything they did on the day of judgement to increase your Iman.
