Surah Al-Anbiya (21:28) Quran.com
وَلَا يَشْفَعُونَ إِلَّا لِمَنِ ارْتَضَىٰ He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they cannot intercede except on behalf of one whom He approves. And they, from fear of Him, are apprehensive. (Sahih International)
Surah Al-Araf (7:53) Quran.com
فَهَلْ لَنَا مِنْ شُفَعَاءَ فَيَشْفَعُوا لَنَا Do they await except its result? The Day its result comes those who had ignored it before will say, "The messengers of our Lord had come with the truth, so are there [now] any intercessors to intercede for us or could we be sent back to do other than we used to do?" They will have lost themselves, and lost from them is what they used to invent. (Sahih International)
Surah Al-Baqarah (2:255) Quran.com
This is the end of the list. يَشْفَعُ was only mentioned 5 times in the Quran. مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهُ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ Allah - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great. (Sahih International)
