The problem of worshipping the individuals like the kings, presidents, rulers, or even the prophets and saints, is strictly forbidden in Islam; for being one of the most dangerous vermins that threat our social progress.
Attachment to a certain person, even if it be the Seal of the Prophets (MOHAMMAD (AS)), will give an end to all hopes and efforts, when that mortal passes away. In this connection the Holy Qurän clearly announces that:
``Mohammad is no more then a Messenger of God. Other messengers have already passed away before him. Should he die or get killed in the war, do you want to recant?'' And if so, you will not harm Allah for the least.''
If you pay more than human honour to any one at any rank, who dies as a mortal, in the sight of your eternal, ever living Lord, Who watches over you and over all; by that you spoil your soul, and stop the wheels of your prosperity.
The verse ends by a mention of those few heroes of distinguished valors, who stayed at the side of the prophet and fought bravely: ``And very soon will Allah reward and recompense those thanks givers.''
