HOLY CITY OF KARBALA, Iraq: Several million devotees
visited the holy mausoleum of Chief of Martyrs Al-Imam Abi Abdellah
Al-Hussein (peace of Allah be on him) marking the Day of Arafah, the
Zul-hijja 9, amid tight security measures.
The pilgrims from across Iraq thronged the holy shrine on the night
and day of Arafah, an occasion when a visit to the grandson of holy
Prophet (peace of Allah be on him and his pure progeny), Chief of
Youth of Paradise Al-Imam Al-Hussein bin Ali bin Abi Taleb (peace of
Allah be on them) is highly recommended by traditions.

get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
