Leader attends Arabaeen mourning ceremony

TEHRAN, Sep. 27 (MNA) – Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei on Monday attended the Arbaeen mourning ceremony marking forty days after the anniversary of Imam Hussein’s (PBUH) martyrdom in the battle of Karbala.

The mourning ceremony of Arbaeen of Imam Hussain (PBUH) was held via videoconference with the presence of the Leader of the Revolution on Monday.

In previous years, groups of university students used to mourn and commemorate the Arbaeen of Imam Hussain (PBUH) with the Leader’s presence in the Hussainiyyah of Imam Khomeini. However, this year due to the Coronavirus pandemic, the Arabeen ceremony was held at the University of Tehran with Leader’s taking part via videoconference.

In this ceremony, Ayatollah Khamenei in a short speech called the period of Ashura to Arbaeen as one of the most important periods in the history of Islam.

Referring to the propaganda attack of the enemies against the Iranian nation to influence public opinion with various methods and tools, he described the move to clarify the truths and realities as a beneficial tool to thwart enemies' propaganda attacks.
