As we read and recite five times a day and very well aware about this verse of the Qur'an
إِيَّاكَ نَعۡبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسۡتَعِينُ
You (Alone) we worship, and you (Alone) WE ASK FOR HELP (for each and everything).
Shia religion totally rejected this verse blatantly and prescribed to seek help from JINNS
عن ابي بصير عن ابي عبد الله قال:إذا ضللت الطريق فناد يا صالح أو يا ابا صالح أرشدونا إلي الطريق.يرحمكم الله
Abu Baseer narrates from Abu Abdullah that he said, “When you lose your way on journey announce thus, “Ya Salih” or “Ya Abu Salih", show us the way. May Allah shower His Mercy upon you.
[Man La Yahdaru Al Faqih 2/195]
So who's "Salih"?
.وروي أن البر موكلته صالح، والبحر موكل به حمزة
It is reported that "Salih" is appointed over the land and Hamzah is appointed over the ocean.
[Man La Yahdaru Al Faqih 2/195]
The grand Scholar of Shia Ibn Babuwayh writes
ومن ضل منكم في سفر وخاف علي نفسه فليناد يا صالح أغثني،فإن في إخوانكم من الجن جنيا يسمي صالح يسبح في البلاد لمكانكم محتسبا نفسه لكم،فإذا سمع الصوت أجاب وأوشد الضال منكم وحبس .عليه دابته
He who goes astray on a journey and fears upon himself should call out, “Ya Salih Help me!” Amongst your Jinn brothers there is a jinn by the name of Salih who, with the hope of reward, traverses all the cities in order to guide you. So when he hears the voice he responds, guides the stray among you, and holds the reigns of his animal.
[Al Khisal 2/618, Wasail As Shiah 8/325]
Shia religion ostensibly inherited this from the people of the era of the first ignorance, for this was part of their culture as is alluded to in the following verse of Quran
وَأَنَّهُۥ كَانَ رِجَالٌ مِّنَ ٱلۡإِنسِ يَعُوذُونَ بِرِجَالٍ مِّنَ ٱلۡجِنِّ فَزَادُوهُمۡ رَهَقًا
And verily, there were men among mankind who took shelter with the masculine among the JINNS, but they JINNS increased them (mankind) in sin and disbelief.
[Surah Jinn 72/6]
So in Shia religion you can not only seek help from demigods, you can also seek help from JINNS and Shayateen.
