Surely Idols are just stones & ornaments..They cannot help itself. How U intelligent people who fall for such trap of few, forgetting the TRUE GOD and his teachings. People blindly believe, the Idols are a way to God. They are mind-washed by the few who knows how to play with illiterate (illiterate in recognizing the Creator) mind which doesnt recognize their own CREATOR & live a life of UNAWARE. When trouble comes they go to this few & beg to solve their problems.
When we learn about our CREATOR and stop depending on such man made Gods -- The CREATOR will surely help U in recognising himself.
Ask with ALLAH no need any intermediate of human, idols, or any thing.
He is your creator & he knows what is in your heart.. U just need to ask him O ALLAH, the one who's hand is my soul, Guide me... Trust me, U will not need any intermediate and idols and fake predators who might deceive U when u ask other than ALLAH.
Learn who is ALLAH and the reality of IDOLs.
