The Shia place a piece of stone or clay, known as "Turbah," on the ground so that their forehead touches the stone when they prostrate themselves in prayer. The Turbahs are made out of the stone or clay from the shrines of Imams or saints. Oftentimes, the Turbah is made from the clay or stone from Imam Hussain's shrine. The Shia Ulema have declared that no Turbah has a higher sacredness than a Turbah made from Imam Hussain's shrine, not even the stone from the Holy Ka'abah. By praying to stones made from the shrines of their Imams and saints, the Shia are practising a polythiestic and paganistic act of grave-worshipping; they are quite literally making Sajood (prostration) to the Imams or saints. Indeed, praying to the Turbah of these Imams and saints is Bidah (evil innovation) and Shirk; it is not much different than idol worshipping. What is the difference between the idol that Hindus do Sajood to and the Turbah that the Shia do Sajood to? Both are considered Waseelah to bring them closer to God, and both of them are prostrated to. Shi'ism is rooted in Shirk; the Shia have allowed their so-called love for the Imams translate into polythiestic adoration. The hadith in question states that the Prophet said, upon him blessings and peace: "I have left among you two matters by holding fast to which, you shall never be misguided: the Book of Allah and the Sunna of His Prophet." This is narrated from Anas by: *Abu al-Shaykh in Tabaqat al-Muhaddithin fi Asbahan (4:67 §549); also from `Amr ibn `Awf by: *Ibn `Abd al-Barr in al-Tamhid (24:331); and also from Ibn `Abbâs by: *Ibn Nasr al-Marwazi (202-294) in al-Sunna (p. 25-26 §68) *al-Hakim in his Mustadrak (1:93=1990 ed. 1:171 §318) who declared that all its narrators are "agreed upon" meaning in the two books of Sahih *al-Bayhaqi in al-Sunan al-Kubra (10:114 §20108) *al-I`tiqad (p. 228) by Malik in his Muwatta'. Ibn `Abd al-Barr narrated its chain in al-Tamhid (24:331) and describes it as "so famous and widespread as a Prophetic report among the people of knowledge" that it can be treated as mass-transmitted (mahfuz, ma`ruf, mashhur `an al-Nabi salla Allahu `alayhi wa-Sallam thamma ahl al-`ilm shuhratan yakadu yustaghna biha `an al-isnad) *Ibn Hazm who declared it sahih in al-Ihkam (6:243=6:810) even though he is overly strict in his criterion for soundness as stated by Shaykh Ahmad al-Ghumari in his student `Abd Allah al-Talidi's biographical notes, Darr al-Ghamam al-Raqiq. Another version states: "I have left among you two matters by holding fast to which, you shall never be misguided: the Book of Allah and my Sunna. And these two shall never part ways until they show up at the Pond." Narrated from Abu Hurayra by: *Ibn Shahin in al-Targhib fil-Dhikr (2:406 §528) as stated by Ahmad al-Ghumari in al-Mudawi (3:482 §3923) *al-Hakim in the Mustadrak (1:93=1990 ed. 1:172 §319) *al-Bayhaqi in al-Sunan al-Kubra (10:114 §20109) *al-Daraqutni in his Sunan (4:245 §149) *Abu Bakr al-Shafi`i in the Ghaylaniyyat as stated by al-Suyuti in the Jami` al-Saghir (§3923) *al-Lalika'i in Sharh Usul I`tiqad Ahl al-Sunna (1:80) *al-Khatib in al-Jami` li-Akhlaq al-Rawi (1983 ed. 1:111=1991 ed. 2:165-166 §89) and al-Faqih wal-Mutafaqqih (1:94) *Ibn `Abd al-Barr in al-Tamhid (24:331) *Ibn Hazm in al-Ihkam (6:243=6:810) *al-Suyuti declared it hasan in al-Jami` al-Saghir (§3923). Also narrated mursal from `Urwa as cited by: *al-Suyuti in Miftah al-Janna (p. 29 §35). Also narrated mursal through Ibn Ishaq from `Abd Allah ibn Abi Najih by: *al-Tabari in his Tarikh (2:205-206) *Ibn Hisham in his Sira (6:8-10). So there are chains through at least four different Companions corresponding to two versions which have in common the wording: "I have left among you two matters by holding fast to which, you shall never be misguided: the Book of Allah and the Sunna or my Sunna." The fact that this wording in the Muwatta' is enough proof that it is sahih, as further confirmed by Ibn `Abd al-barr's remarks. Both these sources actually reflect that there is more to Hadith-grading than the mere documentation of chains of transmission.
