Hadith on Shirk: Allah curses those who sacrifice to other gods

Abi ibn Abi Talib reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Allah has cursed one who sacrifices to other than Allah. Allah has cursed one who harbors a heretic. Allah has cursed one who curses his own parents. Allah has cursed one who manipulates the boundaries of a land.
