Sayyeda Zainab Miracles: http://www.ezsoftech.com/islamic/images/dot.gif Zainab (s.a.) is represented by responding to invocations, in a miraculous way, such as healing the sick and the crippled. Sources have detailed many such miracles. Here are some examples:
A recent miracle that took place in the late sixties and that was reported in the Lebanese newspapers. An old Lady called Haja Fawzia was so sick that she could not stand, walk or even see.
At the beginning of Muharram people were organizing themselves in-groups to visit the Holy Shrine. Haja Fawziah wanted to go with them. She told her brother, Subhi, that she could hire two women to carry her and help her. But he refused the idea saying that the blessed Lady could hear her and help her wherever she was. Haja Fawzia spent the night crying and listening to the story of the martyrdom of Imam Hussein (a.s.). Then she prayed to Allah the almighty invoking the prestigious position of Zainab (s.a.) to heal her.
At dawn, she was getting ready to pray when she felt a women taking her hand and telling her: "Stand up on your feet. I am Zainab bint Ali bin Abi Talib. Your brother has told you that Zainab can heal you if she so wishes while you are in your house. I do not heal anybody unless Allah, the Most Exalted, wants him to be cured... Allah's hand is above mine".
Haja Fawzia replied in astonishment: "But I can't stand". But Zainab (s.a.) insisted saying: "Get Up". The Haja stood up crying: "Allah is great"... She was completely healed... And the story is well known in Lebanon.
There are also some other famous miracles as that of the healing of the only child of the Pakistani merchant, Muhammad Ali Habib:
The son had polio, and all the efforts of the medical doctors were useless. The father, upon a visit to the Holy Shrine prayed to Allah to cure his child.
At the same night, as some sources say, the child who was asleep in his room in Pakistan woke up to find himself able to walk. Following this incident the Pakistani merchant donated the silver cage that still protects the grave.

Assalaam o Alaikum Shanza,

grave k aagay dua ka matlab wo nahi jo aap samjhi ho.
jo bhi grave walay aadmi say dua karay, he will commit SHIRK! coz no one can give us anything but ALLAH and HE is the only one who listens our prayers.
What one can do is that he can pray to Allah Almighty keeping some important personality as WASEELA (Reference). It is said that it actually makes dua more acceptable.
Strongest argument in its favor is the following Quranic Verse:

"Aur ye logg jab apni jaano'n parr zulm kar baithay thay, agar apkay pass aatay aur Allah say muafi mangtay aur Allah k Rasool (SA) unkay liay bakhshish talab kartay to wo Allah ko bhi muaaf karnay wala aur bara meharbaan paatay"
(Surah Al-Nisa, Ayat 64)

This Ayat shows k jesay Nabi (SA) k waseelay say Allah say dua mangna jaaiz hai, wesay hee harr wo cheez ya hasti jo Allah k Mehboob ko uskay waseelay say bhi dua mangi ja sakti hai.

Maulana Tariq Jameel, very famous religious scholar (if u wanna know more about him I can tell u), in one of his dua said:

"Aay Allah teray mehboob (SA) ki hadith hum tak pohanchi hai jiss mai unho nay kaha k meray baad aanay walon ko mera SALAM keh daina .... aay Allah tujhay teray mehboob (SA) k uss SALAM ka WASTA jo unho nay humaray liay bheja humaray gunah muaaf kar dai ...."

yahan Allah Taala k samnay uss SALAM ki impotance yakeenan bohat zyada ho gee, so usko as reference use kia hai dua k liay ....

So, I think unn sahib nay bhi Sayyadina Zainab (RA) k waseelay say hee Allah Taala say apnay baitay k liay Shifa mangi ho gee, agar wo direct Hazrat Zainab (RA) say mangain, to yakeenan ye SHIRK ho ga!
