Shirk

30 Questions

I heard a Shia scholar say that when prostrating at the doorstep of the Prophet (saw), with the intention of piety and love of Allah, this action is not regarded as an act of Shirk. Can you explain the boundaries of Tawheed and Shirk in Shia Islam? Zoheir Ali Esmail
Did Zulaikha, from the time of Prophet Yusuf (a), commit Shirk? If so, was she forgiven for worshipping other gods later in her life? Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi
While I was praying I realized that there was a picture before me depicting people. I immediately placed it elsewhere and repented to Allah. Did I commit Shirk for unintentionally bowing to the picture even though my intention was to bow only to Allah? Amina Inloes
Is atheism considered a form of Shirk? If not, which is worse? Amina Inloes
