Pilgrimage consists of three pillars of pilgrimage, forgery and heart tendency, which in addition to acquainting the pilgrim with the rank and glory of the saints of God, has undeniable effects on his spiritual construction. Nevertheless, the Salafis believe that pilgrimage is simply a form of worship for graves and therefore attributes the grave to the Shiites. Rashid Reza, for example, in his commentary on Al-Manar, which is one of the most important commentaries of the Sunnis, states the reasons for being a gravedigger and the relation of polytheism to the Shiites. He, who has borrowed these arguments from his Salafi predecessors, Ibn Taymiyyah, explains these arguments by quoting verses from the Qur'an. This article, which is written in a descriptive and analytical manner, critiques and examines these arguments. The findings of the study indicate that the lack of correct understanding of the verses, lack of attention to the Sunnah of the Prophet and the elders of Shiite and Sunni scholars and also unfamiliarity with Shiites to understand the intentions and actions of the people and their properties have caused such doubts and confused the commentator. Has discussed.
