Umrah is an Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca, Saudi Arabia, that can be undertaken at any time of the year as compared to Hajj. According to Shariah (Islamic law), a Muslim must first purify himself by performing cleaning rites, donning the required dress, and abstaining from specified behaviours before embarking on either trip. Umrah is regarded as a "lesser" pilgrimage than Hajj since it is done in a matter of hours rather than days.
As photographs of Shah Rukh Khan performing Umrah in Mecca began to circulate on social media, numerous Muslims began to criticize and question the Bollywood actor. Several Muslims replied to the Saudi Arabia journalist who uploaded photographs of Shah Rukh Khan, claiming that he worships Hindu deities in his house, which is considered the biggest sin in Islam.
According to one Twitter user, there is no greater sin than polytheism.
Shah ruh also worships idols. He keeps idols in his house. There is no greater sin than polytheism.
