As in previous years, the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly serves the pilgrims of Imam Hussain (a.s.) in the field of propagation and culture along the Arbaeen Walk. The following pictures show the activities of the missionaries of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly on the Baghdad-Karbala Road.

The first book of the “Arbaeen Photo Album” in Spanish reached its third edition in Latin America just two weeks after its first edition by Lighthouse International Publishing.

In response to a question on the opinion of the Iraqi people about the absence of Iranian pilgrims in the Arbaeen ceremony, the head of Iraq’s Office of AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly, said, “During the last two years, especially last year, due to the absence of Iranian pilgrims, I witnessed the sorrow of Mawkeb owners and Iraqi pilgrims. Last year I saw Mawkeb owners waiting in the streets longingly to see an Iranian pilgrim.”

The Deputy for International Affairs of the Ashura International Foundation said, “This year, the Foundation has held eight webinars on topics such as the role of Hazrat Zainab (a.s.), the role of Imam Sajjad (a.s.), the Christian view of Imam Hussain (a.s.) and the Sunni view of Imam Hussein (a.s.).”
