The General Secretariat of the Imam Hussein Holy Shrine has unveiled the new holy grille of the great companion Habib ibn Madhahir al-Asady on Thursday, the 10th of March 2016.

The opening ceremony started with a Quranic recitation, followed by a word from the Supervising Cleric of the Holy Shrine, Sheikh Abdul-Mahdi al-Karbalaey, in which he spoke in brief about the blessed biography, loyalty and sacrifice of this hero for the Master of Martyrs, making him deserve such a shrine visited by millions.

SayyidAfdhal al-Shamy, member of the Board of Directors, stated, “With God’s assistance, the doors to visit the shrine of Habib ibn Mudhahir are now open after replacing the previous 70-year-old grille with a new one manufactured with modern-style Islamic art.”

“The people of the Iranian province of Borz participated in the manufacturing of this masterpiece through the Kawthar Charitable Foundation,” mentioning that the grille took nearly three years to build.

Special thanks were directed to the Kawthar Foundation and the Maintenance Dept. of Imam Hussein Holy Shrine for their contributions in this project.
