Many narrations told about the greatness of Arafat Day, and recommended us to offer certain rituals, considering it as a positive start point for each faithful. One of the best deeds preferred to offer is offer pilgrimage to Imam Hussein (PBUH).

The Imam Hussein and the El-Abbas Holy Shrines have received so many pilgrims, where thousands of other pilgrims still arriving.

As the Sacred House witnesses reiterations about pilgrimage, the Imam Hussein and the El-Abbas Holy Shrines witness the same rituals offered by those who had no chance to go for pilgrimage.

Both of the Holy Shrines spared no efforts in order to host and serve as many pilgrims as possible.
