There is evidence that the Taj Mahal was never built by Shah Jahan. Some say the Taj Mahal pre-dates Shah Jahan by several centuries and was originally built as a Hindu or Vedic temple/palace complex. Shah Jahan merely acquired it from its previous owner, the Hindu King Jai Singh. And here is the photographic evidence that will provide greater insights into this.These photographs are taken from an album that was found and then smuggled out of India. On the back of each photo there is a stamp mark that says, “Archaeology Survey of India.” This signifies their authenticity and that they were the property of that institution. This means a number of things: That the Archaeology Survey of India (ASI) has been researching the evidence that proves the Taj Mahal and many other buildings were not of Muslim origin, and that they know this information but remain silent about it. Why? All photos are at http://www.stephen-knapp.com/was_the_taj_mahal_a_vedic_temple.htm
The real shame is that even when presented with real evidence people prefer to carry on with their beliefs. If we cannot believe photographic evidence then we might as well believe that the earth is flat. Why do we believe in the photos from outer space?

Copy and paste from another user:
“The Saudi Ulama say that touching the graves and calling the saints for their blessings is polytheism, so what is your opinion?”
Al-Sayyid al-Sadr replied:
If touching the graves and calling the dead is with the understanding that they could cause harm or render a benefit, then that is polytheism, no doubt about it, the Muslims are monotheists and they know that Allah alone could cause harm or render a benefit, but calling the saints and Imams [may Allah bless them all] with the understanding that they could be an intermediary to Allah, that is not polytheism. All Muslims, Sunnis and Shias, agreed on this point from the time of the Messenger up to the present day, except the Wahabiyyah, the Saudi Ulama who contradict all Muslims with their new creed. They caused considerable disturbances among the Muslims, they accused them of blasphemy, they spilt their blood and even beat old pilgrims on their way to the House of Allah in Mecca just because they say “O Messenger of Allah, may peace be upon you”, and they will never let anybody touch his blessed grave. They had so many debates with our learned people, but they persisted in their stubbornness and their arrogance.
Al-Sayyid Sharaf al-Din, a famous Shi’i learned man, went on pilgrimage to the House of Allah during the time of Abdul Aziz ibn Saud, and he was one of those Ulama who were invited to the King’s palace to celebrate with the King ‘Id al-Adhha, in accordance with the customs there. When his turn came to shake the King’shand, Sayyid Sharaf al-Din presented him with a leather bound Qur’an. The King took the Qur’an and placed it on his forehead then kissed it. Al Sayyid Sharaf al-Din said, “O King, why do you kiss and glorify the cover which is only made out of goat’s skin?” The King answered, “I meant to glorify the Holy Qur’an, not the goat’s skin.” Al-Sayyid Sharaf al-Din then said, “Well said, O King. We do the same when we kiss the window or the door of the Prophet’s (saw) chamber, we know it is made of iron and could not harm or render a benefit, but we mean what is behind the iron and wood, we mean to glorify the Messenger of Allah (saw) in the same way as you meant with the Qur’an when you kissed its goat’s skin cover.
The audience was impressed by al-Sayyid and said, “You are right.” The King was forced to allow the pilgrims to ask for blessings from the Prophet’s relics, until the order was reversed by the successor of that king. The issue is not that they are afraid of people associating others with Allah, rather, it is a political issue based on antagonizing and killing the Muslims in order to consolidate their power and authority over the Muslims, and history is the witness to what they have done with the Muslim nation.
Is to visit a grave and pay your respects shirk? Why do we never understand the intentions of an individual rather than judging them by their actions? All views are appreciated.
A little something to ponder over..
“What I fear for my Ummah are misguided Imaams……. And the Last Hour will not come until a section of my Ummah ally with the Mushrikeen, and until people from my Ummah worship idols.” [Sunan Ibn Majah]
And he (SAW) said: “Oh Allah! Do not turn my grave into an idol that people worship! Allah’s wrath is intensified on people who turn their Prophets’ graves into places of worship.” [Al-Muwatta', Imaam Maalik]
Bandar was born officially on March 2, 1949 in Taif, Saudi Arabia. His actual date of birth is reportedly later according to himself and Western think tanks. He had reportedly faked his birthday to enter the RAF.
His mother — Khizaran — was an illiterate sixteen-year-old servant from Libya for his father. Sultan had sexual relationship with her. Bandar, an only child born from her. Later Sultan claimed that she was his “concubine”. He was only 20 years old. Bandar lived with his mother and his aunt. He is recognized as royalty because King Abdul-Aziz personally named him and his 20-year-old father admitted he was his father. He was largely isolated from the royal family. He entered his father’s bedroom for the first time when he was eight. He and his mother moved to his paternal grandmother’s palace. His mother later taught herself to read and write.
He went to Royal Air Force College, Cranwell. He received additional training at Maxwell Air Force Base and the Industrial College of the Armed Forces. He joined the Royal Saudi Air Force for seventeen years and became a lieutenant. He is a trained pilot and has flown numerous fighter aircraft. Bandar’s military career ended in 1977 after he crash-landed his jet and suffered a severe back injury.[4] Afterward, he received a Masters in International Public Policy at the Johns Hopkins University at School of International Studies.
It all started when they went to the presidential palace, no one tried to breach in and it was a peaceful protest, all they did was graffiti the walls of the palace but no damage was done. The clashes started when the pro-Morsi protesters dismantled the tents and attacked the people protesting the next day (it is captured on video so don’t deny it), if pro-Morsi demonstrators are so innocent why did they attack them in the first place? Why would they do such a thing when they could have spared all the deaths and damage done by protesting somewhere else and leaving anti-Morsi protesters alone? A lot of people have been stating that 5 pro-Morsi protesters were killed, more anti-Morsi protesters were killed. I didn’t note down their names but they were shown on ONTV earlier. Karam was killed, Mina was last seen caught by the pro-Morsi demonstrators and no one knows where he is (here he is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SU5Y_vb9U… two women were just on ONTV earlier and they were beaten up (they had bruises all over their face) and they said they were sexually assaulted. I personally know of someone who has been hurt by Pro-Morsi protesters as well.
Also have any of the people defending them been to their protests lately? Because I’ve been pretty close to them and I can’t see how anyone would think they are peaceful and good people unless you’re part of the MB.
So why would the pro-Morsi protesters attack them in the first place?
Also, if you want to see more anti-Morsi protesters hurt go to this link: http://www.facebook.com/johnny.fisher.5099/posts/383727381715313
@Key, Firstly, you didn’t answer my question. Why did the pro-Morsi protesters go there in the first place. I never denied that there weren’t any pro-Morsi deaths, but if they didn’t attack in the first place all of these people wouldn’t be dead. On ONTV they shows the names of 7 deaths of anti-Morsi protesters. Also did you open the link I posted at the end?
Today there were no pro-Morsi protesters in front of the presidential palace and it was peaceful. two days ago when they first went to the presidential palace it was also peaceful due to the absence of pro-Morsi demonstrators, see a connection?
By the way, I’ve noticed a lot of hate around this topic. Even if we disagree we shouldn’t get angry and call each other names, we are all Egyptians in the end. The purpose of this question is not to anger anyone but to try to clear things up, maybe someone has information to share that other people don’t know about. So chill.
I see that no one has answered my question yet. Why did the pro-Morsi protesters go to the presidential palace and attack them in the first place? If you don’t know the answer then you’re brainwashed into not asking questions by the MB.
Ciao!
I’ve been in Venezia last year.
But now to come of think of it, I never bothered in knowing how did the settlers constructed the city.
Can anyone descibe in a brief input, how was it built?
