The Holy Quran 22:32 — Surah Al-Hajj
Arabic text
ذَٰلِكَ وَمَن يُعَظِّمْ شَعَـٰٓئِرَ ٱللَّهِ فَإِنَّهَا مِن تَقْوَى ٱلْقُلُوبِ
Translation
So it is. Whoever honours (sincerely) the landmarks (distinctive signs) of (the Deen of) Allaah (which are unique to Islaam), then this (respect) is because of the Taqwa of hearts (respect for these landmarks denotes Taqwa in a person's heart).
Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani
Revering the sha'a'ir of Allah: that is, revering the sha'a'ir of Allah (the sacred symbols marked with Allah’s name) is not included in shirk (associating partners with Allah). Whoever has piety and fear of the One Allah in his heart will surely show respect to the things that bear His name.
