As salaamu aleikoum,
NOTE: I Request the moderators and fellow members to keep an eye on the behavior of some members who can't control their temper and burst out insults when-ever they are unable to produce reasonable evidences for their claims.
In the light of the thread recently closed where some members claimed that the graves of dead people are holy, I would like to proceed here with the following.
For those of you who have not studied the Seerah of the prophet Muhammad saww, here is some useful information:
Abu Taalib was one of the prominent figures of Banu Haashim branch of the Quraish tribe. He helped his nephew, Muhammad saww but he never accepted Islam. And after he died, the prophet Muhammad saww was not allowed to pray for him. Because he died as a disbeliever.

Now the Questions is: Why do graveworshippers consider the shrine of a disbeliever as a holy site?
Second question is: What is the religious significance of a grave? Do the grave-worshippers have any evidence from Qur'an and Hadith supporting their practice of visiting shrines of dead people, and invoking the dead?
