Virendra there is nothing wrong in going to graves as long as you pray for them not pray from them, what people dont get is how can one who is no more in this world & is at god's mercy how can they help others, why not pray/ask directly from god?

It is a great tourist and historical site and helps the economy of SriNagar. It should be rebuilt while keeping the surviving (historical) structure in tact.

It is just a grave site and has no historical importance in Islam other than it is a grave site of Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jeelan who was scholar of Islam. Build a school for Children instead of another Shrine it will do a lot more good for Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jeelan "Akhrah" here after . Grave worship has become so common among Muslims, people say they ask Sheikh to request Allah to make things easy for them but when Quran tells them you only need Allah and Allah alone can give you, ask Allah for help and you don't need any Sheikh between you and Allah. May Allah have his Mercy on the great scholar of Islam Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jeelan and guide the ignorant Muslims to follow the true teaching of Islam, only ask Allah for help.

Funny reading your post....reminds me of why Christianity split into Catholics and Protestants. You seem to be speaking the voice of Martin Luther - the German priest who engineered the schism against the Vatican.

Absolutely! These are historical heritages and for some have religious sentiments attached. Nothing wrong in it. Kashmir has traditionally the sufi Islam practiced all through. Probably that was the reason, it had peace all through it's history. What is wrong with going to graves? Some may not agree which is fine but don't get aggressive with this who differ with you. Tolerance is the key. There is a point when "saythetruth" says make a school instead. But it could also be said build a school too.
