BAGHDAD, Iraq: An estimated 5 million pilgrims flocked on Rajab 25,
June 28 Tuesday to the holy shrine of Al-Imamayn Al-jawwadayn (AS) in
Kadhimiyah to observe the martyrdom anniversary of Al-Imam Mussa
Al-Kadhim (AS) snarling traffic and sending security forces to the
streets to protect the worshippers.
Iraqi spiritual leader, clerics and security officials hailed
troops' work as a huge success.
Baghdad's top military spokesman, Maj. Gen. Qassim al-Moussawi,
praised the security forces and said that they foiled terror plots. He
did not give any details.
Police used concrete blocks and razor wire to close roads across the
capital to safeguard the pilgrims. Al-Moussawi said the security
precautions began early last week.
Tents were set up to provide shelter, food and water along the
pilgrimage.

"Knowledge is
better than wealth because it protects you while you have to
guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the
more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you
get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
