AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): On his feelings on participating in the Arbaeen Walk, the Turkish citizen said, “It is very difficult to express my feelings in a few sentences. We come to the Arbaeen Walk to say “Labbayk Ya Hussain”.”
A Turkish citizen who takes part in the Arbaeen Walk said, “Imam Hussain (a.s.) is the manifestation of the beauty of Islam. He is a unique figure for all Muslims as well as the people of the world. Islam is a perfect religion, and a school for everyone.”
“Imam Hussain (a.s.) is in our hearts. Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) said, “The AhlulBayt (a.s.) are the vessel of salvation; everyone on this ship will reach felicity,” added Jafar Taşdemir, in an interview with ABNA News Agency correspondent.
“It is very difficult to express my feelings in a few sentences. We come to the Arbaeen Walk to say “Labbayk Ya Hussain”,” he said about his feelings on participating in the Arbaeen Walk.
“The Arbaeen Walk is the largest organization and structure in the Islamic world that does not have a special coordinator, and the enthusiasts of Aba Abdellah Al-Hussain (a.s.) come to this great ceremony every year with great enthusiasm and interest,” said Taşdemir, a resident of Istanbul, on the message of the Arbaeen Walk.
“Obtaining a visa was not so easy and some people found it difficult,” he said on visa problems, stating that thousands of Turkish Shiites have taken part in the Arbaeen Walk.
“I call on all people to take part in the Arbaeen Walk and see the atmosphere here. Before the outbreak of Covid-19, about 25 to 30 million pilgrims participated in the Arbaeen Walk, and this is unbelievable. The Arbaeen Walk has an atmosphere that is unparalleled anywhere in the world,” the Turkish citizen, who is participating in the Arbaeen walk for his first time said, addressed the world people.
“This is my first visit to Iraq. I must say that the Iraqi people are very humble. They open their doors to welcome pilgrims. They are hospitable, and this extent of hospitality is unbelievable,” he said on the hospitality of Iraqi people.
