The Japanese convert Sheikh Hachaki Shan expressed his eagerness to visit the Holy Shrine of Imam Hussain and his brother Aba al-Fadl al-Abbas, peace be upon them, at the earliest opportunity.
Sheikh Shan, who holds a prestigious scientific certificate and whose name has become ‘Ibrahim Hachaki’ said on his social media account, “When will God Almighty grant us a visit to Imam Hussain, peace be upon him.”
He also expressed his hope to visit Iraq and meet with its “loyal Shias,” according to him.
Hachaki seeks to publicize the cause of Imam Hussain, peace be upon him, in Japan and neighboring countries by holding Husseini ceremonies and reviving sacred rituals to publicize the oppression of the Master of Martyrs and spread the thought of the Ahlulbayt, peace be upon them.
“I used to follow the Shinto religion, but after reading the Holy Quran and being influenced by the cause and revolution of Imam Hussain, peace be upon him, I reached a complete conviction that Islam is the true religion,” said Shan.
