Nalain of Rasool SAWS

Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) caused the trace of his footprints to remain on the stone as a reminder to the believers among his descendants.Although the Arabs worshipped stones during the Period of Ignorance, no one ever worshipped the Hajar al-Aswad or the Maqame Ebrahim even though the Arabs revered them. It appears that it was Allah’s explicit intention to protect the Maqame Ebrahim from Shirk and all types of worship.

Note that the significance of the Maqame Ebrahim is that it is a place for the performance of salah and not for touching or kissing. When there are lots of people performing tawaf it is better to perform salah some distance away from the Maqame Ebrahim to avoid causing unnecessary inconvenience to others.
What applies to the Maqame Ebrahim doesn’t apply to pictures people make of the prophets sandals. And in the end Allah knows best.

Now my earlier refusal to argue is no longer applicable, due to nothing but debate taking place on this thread

You copy pasted your reply except the penultimate line [second last]. Can you tell me why what applies to Maqam e Ibraheem does not apply to Nalain Shareef? I say much applies to both including reverence, issues to do with Shirk, and their memory being kept alive etc etc
You said pictures of Nalain Shareef are not going to help anyone, I say this contention from your view also applies to Maqam e Ibraheem. Its true as well, they alone are not going to help anyone. Yet Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala has kept Maqam e Ibraheem for us, and I say if we are able to show reverence to the feet of Ibraheem Alaihis Salam then that would help us, the same applies to Nalain Shareef. A picture is not actually essential but it helps, so in the end it can help someone.

Although there is many things which are half baked in your earlier posts such as Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala protecting the black stone and Maqam e Ibraheem from Shirk, yet you are saying Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala will not do the same for Nalain Shareef. Look it is clear Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala will decide of who falls into shirk, He Allah Ta’ala Guides Whom He Wills. Nalain Shareef can not be included into the equation of potentially being a cause of shirk for the same reason

You can make a ‘case’ for a fiqhi ruling that paper representations of Nalain shareef are impermissible, if that is your ruling. I do not know if Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaah [traditional Islam, not wahabis] have ijma on its permissibility or not. What is in favor of it is that it is not a part of RasoolAllah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Ahlihi wa Sallam which would be impermissible to draw [one of the opinions for its impermissibility is that we can not capture the Noor]

One of the possible reasons the people you take religion from may not allow it or it is a part of the reason they do not allow it is that they think RasoolAllah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Ahlihi wa Sallam is just like them. This would be a kufri reason for denying its permissibility

BTW what we have heard from people so far would indicate its permissibility in the eyes of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaah

Like I have said I have kissed an image of Nalain Shareef which indicates my stance. Else where I have said the Awliya [not Prophets] have their foot upon my neck and that i have wanted a topi with nalain shareef on my head, which when combined indicates how I would like to benefit from the Nalain Shareef
