Can a Waliy help Another, even if He is far away from Him?

Question :

Is it possible for a Wally from among the Awliya" of Allah to help a person far away, for example, a person living in India and the Waliy lives in Saudi Arabia: Is it possible for the Saudi to physically help the Indian, even though the Saudi is in Saudi Arabia and the Indian is in India.

Answer:

It is possible for the living Awliya' and others to help those who seek help from them, within the limits of normal means, such as by giving money, or interceding with those in authority, or helping him against some mishap or the like, by the means within the abilities of humans, according to what is normal and universally accepted among them.

As for what is beyond the normal capabilities of mankind, such as the example given by the questioner, the power to do such does not belong to the creatures, rather it belongs to Allah, Alone, without partners. He is Able to do all things and it is to Him the laws of nature belong. He executes them as He wills and violates them as He wills. For this reason, it is His right to be supplicated to, He Alone can give refuge, He and no other gives help, for it is He Alone Who encompasses all things with His Knowledge and Whose Wisdom and Mercy embrace all things.

There is none who can prohibit what He gives and there is none who can give what He prohibits, and there is none who can reject what He ordains and He is Able to do all things. Allah, the Most High says:
And who is more astray than one who calls (invokes) besides Allah, such as will not answer him till the Day of Resurrection, and who are (even) unaware of their calls (invocations) to them? And when mankind are gathered (on the Day of Resurrection) they (false deities) will become enemies for them and will deny their worshipping."

And He says:
If you invoke (or call upon) them, they hear not your call, and if (in case) they were to hear, they could not grant it (your request) to you. And on the Day of Resurrection, they will disown your worshipping them. And none can inform you like Him Who is the All-Knower (of each and everything)

He taught us in Surah Al-Fatihah to say:
You (Alone) we worship and You (Alone) we ask for help (for each and everything),"

Likewise, the Prophet ordered us not to ask anyone besides Allah, nor to seek help except from Him, saying:
If you ask, ask Allah and if you seek help, seek it from Allah.
