HOLY CITY OF KARBALA, Iraq: Thousands gathered in the Husseini
shrine compound and the area between the two holy shrines – Husseini
and Abbasi – in this holy city on the call of Maraje.


Maraje had made an appeal to the people to pray to avert the
conspiracy of terrorists against the patient mo’min Iraqi people.
The program began after Maghrib and Isha (evening) prayers followed by
a lecture by Ayatullah Sayyed Mortadha Al-Qazvini on “prayer, its
material and spiritual effects.”


Doa Al-Joshan As-Saghir, Doa Komayl, Doa At-Tawassol and Quranic Ayah
‘Amm-Mann Yojeeb Al-Modhtarra Iza Da’ahu wa Yakshifos-Suaa’ were
recited with due reverence.
