Title: What to do with turbah?
Post by: kernel on August 10, 2017, 05:12:57 AM
I have this turbah (mohr) that the shia prostrate their heads on. What should I do with it now that I am Sunni?

Nothing, I guess.

I gave mine to a Shia friend for his use.

For now I'll keep it. It is just soil now to me though but if I meet another shia I will probably give it as a gift.

It's just a rock at this point. Assuming it has no un-islamic elements inscribed on it; you can keep it as decoration.

Astaghfirullah, dont belittle the soil of Al Husayn a.s. , it still comes fro ma holy place. Would you flush the sand of masjid ul haram or the kaaba, even if it is only sand?

It is the place that makes it holy. Not the sand.

Yes, I would.

Karbala is anything, but holy land. I'd happily go, and urinate in the middle of Kabbabala just to make a point.

dont say such things, you must remember there are still shias on this site that feel sensitive to these issues.

Actually, you wouldn't, since you'd get stabbed in an instant... and secondly, please be more tasteful dude, you must have been watching Yaser Al Habeeb videos or something.

Thats normal bro, sometimes when we deal with people with filthy beliefs such as shia (who believe Prophet shallalahu alayhi wasallam married wicked women for the rest of his life or believe their mahdi would dig up and torture the best of sahaba etc), we may got carried away & said unnecessary stuff. Happens to me many times too.

I just did this.

SHIA IS NOT ISLAM. KARBALA IS NOT A HOLY LAND!

One thing is for sure, Husayn himself is reported to have detested that land and hated its mention.

Can you give a source on this?

In Muruj al-Dhahab by al-Mas`udi, Husayn says when he reaches Karbala':

هذا موضع كرب وبلاء، ها هنا مناخ ركابنا، ومحط رحالنا وسفك دمائنا

"This is a land of anguish and misfortune."

So they turned into holy land and fabricated nonsense in its virtues raising it above Makkah and Madinah both of which are mentioned in the primary sources (Quran & authentic Sunnah)

How does this mean he disliked the land? He could have meant bad things would happen there but that doesn't show a disliking for it.

Does this narration have a chain?

Probably not, there's others where Ali himself calls it that. That's what recorded in history books including Kitab Siffin by Nasr bin Muzahim.

I apologise for saying that, BUT its not from a karbala nor from the shrine around. i made some research about it and it comes from outer region of mashad and karbala. so it is indeed just soil but to make u worship this turbah they say it comes from karbala directly but even sayyed fadlullah said, that it is not possible to produce mohr from the soil of karbala.
