Question

Is it permissible to write names on the Kabah and Jabal-e-Rehmat? I have seen many people writing their names on the Kabah and Jabl-e-Rehmat. Isn't it shirk?

Answer

This is not a shirk practice. Try and understand what is shirk first before you declare anything as shirk.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
