May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon our beloved prophet, Muhammad and his progeny (Ahlu Al-Bayt). pardon the brothers whom have been misguided, pardon and enduring with patience is what Imam Ali as. would want you to do.

Islam may have not stood in the way of people building certain lavish tombs or making pilgrimages to other than the actual sacred sites, but it certainly played no role in the large or luxurious grave shrines or pilgrimages invented by weak scholars Banuw Lakhm/Lakhmiyuwn as being a nineteen (the last 18 were Christian) ruler kingdom between 268-633 C.E. and the last in that part of southern Iraq before Islamic rule having the Munaadharah as their descending ethnic group is more important to history than that Ali Ibn Abi Talib or others were buried in Annajaf. Muhammad ibn Muhammad ibn Al Hasan aTTusee teaching the Al Maliki, Al Hanbali, Al Hanafi, Ash-Shafi, and Al Imami there in the school he established, as well as his writing of both Al Astabaar and Tahdheeb Al Ahkaam during a period were there was persecution of both Shi'ite and Sunni under Al Khilaafat ul `Abbaasiyyah is also more important than the shrines there. `Ulamah or other revisionist concepts of The Islamic Authority may not be completely Islamic, but it has been enough to maintain some non-corrupted features in Muslim majority societies; despite colonialism, modern dictators, and internal hypocrites trying to bring secular rule.

If I happen to go along with your equation, then it will never end if I take your theory, you will keep going back and forth. For example; if he created this, who created him, then who created that thing which created what existed, and who created that, then who created the first ever substance that made all creation .....so on and so forth, it never ends. But if we speak about every right-minded person, who has a brain that functions with common sense & logic, will tell you nothing comes into existence without a supreme power beyond human characteristics, who is the one that made it come into existence. Man-made constructions were constructed by people through who are qualified in their particular profession, and you telling me, out of darkness substances came together millions of years ago, and here we are ??!. No such coincidence creats this complex, organised, incredibly constructed universe, without a power beyond, which made it all come together, to form this whole existence. Every law has a law maker, and you're trying to convince me that this existence doesn't have one Almighty law maker & authority.

@tarn zing who told you that?

[@Ace-313]

@tarn zing You're not familiar with the city of Najaf. The people there are built different. They dislike any outsider visiting them especially the city, they will stalk and spy on you if you are not Shia, even Shia from other cities visiting will be followed. The people of Najaf are upset because they know anyone outside of the Shia sect does not love Imam Ali A.S.
