Nasfi (d 710 AH) on Anbiya can’t benefit or harm if you call upon them.

 

Allah says in Surah Isra verse 56-57

(56. Say: “Call upon those – besides Him whom you pretend. They have neither the power to remove the adversity from you nor even to shift (it from you to another person).”) (57. Those whom they call upon, desire a means of access to their Lord, as to which of them should be the nearest; and they hope for His mercy and fear His torment. Verily, the torment of your Lord is (something) to be afraid of!)

Nasfi (d 710 AH) said about Isa and Uzair (peace be upon them), angels, jinn to whom they used to call upon:

ادعوهم فهم لا يستطيعون أن يكشفوا عنكم الضر من مرض أو فقر أو عذاب، ولا أن يحولوه من واحد إلى آخر

“Call upon them, then! They cannot remove harm from you, whether it be:

– Sickness

– Poverty

– Punishment

Nor can they transfer it:

– From one person to another

– From one circumstance to another”

(Tafsir al Madarak, Surah al Isra verse 56)
