Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi’s advice regarding the processions of Arba’een

The ceremony of Arba’een is a valuable treasure for us, for it has protected the grandeur of Islam and that of the Shiite school of thought. Therefore, it must be  appreciated as  magnificent as possible.

The magnificence of the mourning processions of Arba’een has left the world flabbergasted

The mourners came to the holy city of Karbala from Najaf and the other regions on foot to mourn for Imam Hussein’s martyrdom and this has turned the mourning ceremonies in to an amazingly huge gathering, which is a tradition that has to be preserved.
