Performing Sajdah for Anyone Other Than Allah
Issue No.976- It is haram to perform sajdah for anyone other than the Almighty Allah. Some people place their foreheads on earth before the graves of the holy Imams (as). If this is done to prostrate for the Imam (as), it is haram and if it is to thank Allah, there is no problem in it. However, if this is considered by the others as sajdah for the holy Imams (as), or if it gives a pretext to the enemies, then it is not allowed as an obligatory precaution.
