Saying that as part of the Duaa to the dead in a graveyard is sunnah. However, such greetings to shrines and Darghas are not permissible as people commit shirk by seeking their assistance and refuge.

My husband placed a silver knife by our baby’s pillow to protect him from jinns that upon seeing such materials would run away. We had a big fight about it when I told him to make dua upon the baby and that will protect him In Shaa Allah than a knife. He told me why do I rely on medicines although I know Allah can cure everything? Please help me, what do I tell him? Is this practice permissible?
