Centres affiliated with the office of Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Sadiq al-Husseini al-Shirazi (may Allah prolong his life) have held mourning ceremonies and religious activities in several Afghan cities to commemorate the martyrdom anniversary of Lady Fatima al-Zahra (peace be upon her), alongside continuing humanitarian and charitable initiatives.
In Bamyan, a series of mourning gatherings brought together religious scholars, representatives of religious authorities, seminary students, members of the Council of Scholars and followers of the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them). The programme included congregational prayers, religious lectures and speeches delivered by several scholars and clerics, including Hujjat al-Islam wal-Muslimeen Hajj Nasrullah Balaghi, Ghulam Reza al-Husseini, Sayyid Nasrullah al-Wa’izi and Nematullah al-Bayani.
The speakers highlighted the elevated status and virtues of Lady Fatima al-Zahra (peace be upon her), her position in Islam and her teachings on faith, morality and human values. They also stressed the importance of following her example and strengthening younger generations’ connection with the teachings of the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them).
The gatherings concluded with religious elegies and mourning poems recalling the suffering and martyrdom of Lady Fatima al-Zahra (peace be upon her).
These activities form part of the religious, humanitarian and charitable programmes organised by centres affiliated with the Shirazi religious authority in Afghanistan, aimed at promoting the teachings of the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them) and supporting local communities.
