Do you practice this? If so, leave it! Some people call upon the name of a Sheikh or Wali (saint) when they encounter problems or distress, so they might say; Ya Muhammad Ainee! Ya Ali Madad! Ya Husayn Nasr! Ya Jeelaani Agithnee! Ya Badawee! Ya Shaadhili! Ya Rifaai! Etc... And Allah (the Most High) says: Do then those who disbelieve think that they can take My slaves as Awliyaa (protectors/helpers) besides Me? Verily, We have prepared Hell as an entertainment for the disbelievers. Say (O Muhammad): Shall we inform you of the greatest losers as to (their) deeds? They are those whose effort is lost in (this) worldly life, while they think that they are doing good. Those are the ones who disbelieve in the verses of their Lord and in (their) meeting with Him, so their deeds have become worthless; and We will not give any importance to them on the Day of Resurrection.-Quran 18:102-105. Some of those who worship graves walk around them as if in Tawaaf, and acknowledge their corners, or touch them, kiss them, wipe their faces with their dust (seeking barakah), prostrate towards them when they see them, or stand before them in fear and humility, praying for whatever they need of healing from some disease, or for a child, or for help with some difficulty. Sometimes they call upon the occupant of the grave, saying: “O my master, I have come to you from far away, so do not let me down. All of this is from the most vilest of Shirk with Allaah Most High, a sin which He, will not forgive.
