Picture, statue and any object which shall be made, purchased with the intention of praying and anything related to pray is haram as it is source of Shirk.. and shirk is strictly forbidden in Islam, taking pictures for memories and/or legal purposes has never been haram and has been in use by the muslims since the invention of such… even before the times, paintings humans and other living creatures and scenery has been seen in the history of Islamic era…

One thing i do not understand about the SHIA.. they do remember and mourn the day their Imams died, they do have ceremonies and gatherings on the day of their birth.. but there is nothing they do to practice how the Imams have lived their lives! i wonder why? when we read about the great virtues of these Imams, the thing comes to mind is that the followers of the same would be of geat character… but all what is seen is mourning ceremonies and birth ceremonies… all they remember is the day they died, they never seem to care why they select the path of death.. as if they do, then the same death becomes the reason to live..

but maybe it is too difficult to follow Their life-style and it is 100 time easier to mourn and curse… and that is why it is practiced…

very well said. but its NOT only restricted to shi’as, i wud say the majority of muslims [all sects included] are away from deen. what saddens me more is the fact that most muslims these days do shirk without even knowing. qabr parasti, barelvism is a perfect example of that…Barelvis have exalted Prophet’s [saws] position in the same manner as christians have elevated Jesus [a.s.] to the rank of God. there is stark resemblence. we’ll soon hear from their pulpit, just as christians say about Jesus, that take Prophet [saws] in ur heart and ur salvation is guaranteed and will preach just to listen to qawwalsi and do miilaads. i’m really saddened to see this. qabr-parasti and peeri/mureedi has become a big business these days due to blind following.
