Houses, mosques and streets were beautifully decorated marking the joyous occasion while the devotees of Ahlil Bayt (AS) also lit the candles; feasts were arranged; gifts and greetings were extended to each other; and festivals and aamaal known as ‘aamaal laylaton nisf’ were held at mosques and husseiniyahs including husseiniyah Rasul Al-Adham (s), husseiniyah An-Nasser in Sehat, masjid Az-Zahraa (AS), masjid al-mas’alah, majlis an-namr, husseiniyah Abi’l Fadhl al-Abbas (AS) and jama al-Kauther.
