Quote:I am sorry, but there are many Shi’a’ women who does that.
So you saw women who according to the hadith:
1. Wail Loudly
2. Shave their head
3. Tear their garments
4. Shout slogans of Jahiliyya
I have never seen a Shia woman do all 4 of those things. Shia women wear white while they are in Ihram (I know since I have been on Hajj last year). After they are freed of the obligations of Ihram they may wear black if they wish.
Why it wrong for Shia women (and men) to cry in Masjid Nabawy? The calling out to dead people i assume is referring to Tawassul or Shafa'a (intercession), why do you think this is wrong?
Quote:I mean what is the aim, purpose or grounds on which one would touch gates of Ka`ba, masjed nabawi or any similar thing.
I personally touched and kissed baab e Jibraeel while I was in Masjid Nabawi. A Saudi Policeman stopped me and searched me. I never understood why?
When Shia kiss anything holy it is just a show of respect or reverence. Is kissing the Quran wrong? Then why would kissing the gates if Ka'aba or Masjid Nabawy be wrong?
