Erasing the Accusation of Shirk

007.137 And We made a people, considered weak (and of no account),
inheritors of lands in both east and west, - lands whereon We sent down
Our blessings. The fair promise of thy Lord was fulfilled for the Children of
Israel, because they had patience and constancy, and We levelled to the
ground the great works and fine buildings which Pharaoh and his people
erected (with such pride).
017.001 Glory to (Allah) Who did take His servant for a Journey by night
from the Sacred Mosque to the farthest Mosque, whose precincts We did
bless,- in order that We might show him some of Our Signs: for He is the
One Who heareth and seeth (all things).
021.071 But We delivered him and (his nephew) Lut (and directed them) to
the land which We have blessed for the nations.
These verses are talking about the blessed land of Palestine, where Allah has
sent many blessings and many Prophets. Allah Azawajal took our beloved
Rassulullah from the blessed city of Makkah on the night of Mira’j to show
him this very holy city. This proves that Allah has made certain cities holy;
He has made Palestine especially holy due to all the coming of countless
Prophets to that very land. Palestine has been said to be holy because of the
Prophet’s who lived there and who are buried there. Makkah and Madina are
also said to be holy, as Madina is the place where Rasulullah ( may Allah
bless him and grant him peace) is buried. Futhermore there are many lands
where the Prophets and pious have lived and are buried, and it is for this
reason that they are considered holy. If one was to make a supplication to
Allah whilst at the graves of the Prophet’s and pious, the supplication would
Insha’Allah be accepted quickly, as one would be at a holy place.
SAYYIDINA ZAKARIYA (PEACE BE UPON HIM)
SUPPLICATED TO ALLAH AT A HOLY PLACE
003.037 And her Lord accepted her with full acceptance and vouchsafed to
her a goodly growth; and made Zachariah her guardian. Whenever
Zachariah went into the sanctuary where she was, he found that she had
food. He said: O Mary! Whence cometh unto thee this (food) ? She
answered: It is from Allah. Allah giveth without stint to whom He will.
003.038 Then Zachariah prayed unto his Lord and said: My Lord! Bestow
upon me of Thy bounty goodly offspring. Lo! Thou art the Hearer of Prayer.
