According to the news bureau of the Holy Shrine of Lady Fatima Masuma (peace be upon her), Hujjat al-Islam Seyyed Abolfazl Hakimi, the cultural affairs official of the caravan at pillar 1080, reported a series of special cultural and religious programs for this year’s Arbaeen observance. He stated: “In light of the martyrdom of the great leader of the Islamic Ummah, the caravan’s cultural programs have been prepared with a special and organized approach for the pilgrims.” Referring to the Quranic programs, he added: “One of the most significant parts of our activities is the recitation of the Holy Quran with the participation of national and international reciters in the form of ‘Adhan-time Recitations,’ held before the noon and sunset adhans, filling the caravan’s atmosphere with the fragrance of the Quran.” Hakimi continued: “Another segment of the Quranic programs is the daily recitation of Surah Al-Fath—a chapter that was emphasized by the martyred Leader for the victory of the Resistance Front. This Quranic session is held every day with skilled reciters from the Islamic Republic of Iran and the participation of pilgrims.” The cultural official of the holy shrine’s caravan also cited the holding of recitation sessions of the supplications of Sahifa Sajjadiyya, especially the 14th supplication, as well as the Dua Tawassul (Supplication of Intercession) with the presence of eulogists and reciters of the Ahl al-Bayt (AS), as other prominent cultural programs that have been warmly received by pilgrims. He added: “Lectures on spiritual and doctrinal topics are held with the participation of distinguished preachers, including Hujjat al-Islam Mandegari, Khalaj, Navvab, and others, broadcast live on national radio and television. Additionally, mourning ceremonies and eulogy recitations are continuously held to give pilgrims greater spiritual strength as they continue their journey to holy Karbala.” Hakimi also noted the holding of an international unity conference at the caravan, saying: “This conference, themed around the gratitude of the Iranian nation to the Iraqi nation for their partnership in the funeral rites of the martyred Leader, featured representatives from the holy shrines of Iraq, Iraqi caravan organizers, prominent religious figures, a number of Hashd al-Shaabi forces, caravan organizers from various countries, and Hujjat al-Islam wal-Muslimeen Seyyed Hashem al-Haidari—an international figure of the Resistance Front—showcasing a special manifestation of Islamic unity.” In conclusion, he referred to the implementation of the “Envoys of Karimah” project and stated: “This program is carried out every year with the aim of appreciating the sincere services of the caravan organizers and Hashd al-Shaabi forces to the pilgrims. As part of this project, the servants of the holy shrine’s caravan visit Iraqi caravans as well as those from various other countries, express gratitude for their services, and present blessed mementos from the holy shrine to the caravan managers, thereby further strengthening the message of friendship, solidarity, and good neighborliness among nations.”
