Turbah Karbala (Arabic: تربة کربلاء, lit.
'Soil of Karbala'),[1][2][3] or Khāk-e Shifā (Lisan al-Dawat, Persian, and Urdu: خاکِ شِفاء, lit.
[9][10] According to Islamic (Shi'i) narrations, "Turbah Karbala" has diverse effects,[11][12][13] and prostrating on it is considered as a Mustahab (recommended) practice[14] during the time of prayer(s).
[15] The sixth Imam of Shia Islam, Ja'far al-Sadiq named this soil as affairs trouble-shooter.
[16][17] Turbah which means soil,[18][19] grave, tomb, etc.,[20] is regarded (as a probability) as every soil around each holy grave(s) among the Islamic prophet Muhammad, The Twelve Imams and Imamzadehs; but exclusively it is attributed to the soil of Hussain ibn Ali's grave,[21] and the phrases "Tin-al-Qabr" or "al-Tin" are considered as it according to the hadiths of Shia Imams.
