Accusing of shirk
Dawud ibn Salih said: “[The governor of Madina] Marwan one day saw a man placing his face on top of the grave of the Prophet ﷺ. He said: “Do you know what you are doing?” When he came near him, he realized it was Abu Ayyub al-Ansari. The latter said: “Yes; I came to the Prophet, not to a stone.” [Musnad Ahmed Bin Hanbal 5:466, Imam Hakim in his Al-Mustadrak 4:520, Hadith # 8571)
Abdullah Ibn Ahmed (rah) narrates: “I saw my father (Imam Ahmed) take
the hair of Prophet (ﷺ), put it on his mouth, and kiss it. I believe I saw him put it on his eyes. He
also dipped it in water and drank the water to “OBTAIN SHAFA”. I saw him
take the Prophet’s bowl (qas’a), wash it in water, and drink from it. I saw him
drink Zamzam water in order to seek cure with it, and he wiped his hands and
face with it.”
‘AbdUllah (rah) asked his father about those who touch the pommel of the Prophet’s ﷺ pulpit and touch the wall of the Prophet’s ﷺ room (in order to obtain barakah), and he said: “”I DO NOT SEE ANY HARM IN IT” May Allah protect us and you from the “OPINION OF THE KHAWARIJ” and from innovations! [Al-Dhahabi, Siyar A’lam al-Nubala’ (9:457)]
Narrated Usama bin Zaid: Allah’s Apostle sent us towards Al-Huruqa, and in the
morning we attacked them and defeated them. I and an Ansari man followed a man from among them and when we
took him over, he said, “La ilaha illal-Lah.” On hearing that, the
Ansari man stopped, but I killed him by stabbing him with my spear. When we
returned, the Prophet ﷺ came to know about that and he said, “O Usama! Did you kill him
after he had said “La ilaha ilal-Lah?” I said, “But he said so
only to save himself.” The Prophet ﷺ kept on repeating that so often
that I wished I had not embraced Islam before that day. [Volume 5, Book 59,
Number 568: (Sahih Bukhari)]
In another hadith it says: “Did you open his heart and look inside
it?”
Anas bin Malik (ra) narrates from the Prophet (ﷺ) who said: Three things are the roots of
faith (1) To refrain from (killing) a person who says “La ILaha IL Allah” (2)
Not to declare him unbeliever whatever sin he commits (3) and also not to
declare him out of Islam due to any of his deed…[Sunnan Abu Dawud, Volume No.
2, Hadith # 2170]
Hadrat Hudhaifa i.e. Ibn al Yaman (ra) said that the Prophet ﷺ said: Verily, I fear about a man
from you who will read the Qur’an so much that his face will become enlightened
and he will come to personify Islam. This will continue until Allah desires.
Then these things will be taken away from him when he will disregard them by
putting them all behind his back and will attack his neighbor with the
sword”ACCUSING HIM OF SHIRK” The Prophet was asked – which of the two will be
deserving of such an accusation? – The attacker or the attacked? The Prophet
replied – the attacker (the one accusing the other of Shirk) [Narrated by Ibn
Hibban in his Sahih, Volume No. 1, Page No. 282, Bukhari in his Tarikh ul
Kabir, Volume No. 4, Page No. 301)
