It will be built in the same way used in the creation of the crypt of Imam Al-Jawad (peace be upon him), noting that the process of lifting the initial layer of soil with sewage, electricity and other pipes has been completed, preceded by the works of covering the inner halls of the holy shrine with nylon to prevent the entry of dust to the rest of the facilities of the holy shrine, as well as creating a way to move the rubble and including a route for the passage of the vehicles from inside the holy shrine passing from the courtyard between the two holy shrines."

Adding: "Then, there will be the installation of concrete columns in an overlapping manner by 10cm and with a depth of 12m underground to form a wall surrounding the basement, which will prevent the groundwater flow if found, as well as to prevent the encroachment and the collapse of the walls to the interior and to create where to place pipes with depth of 1,5m... It will be divided into parts to ensure the continuation and the non-stop of works, God Willing."

Mr. Al-Sa'egh concluded: "It is normal for any project of this magnitude to face some obstacles, but all praise to Allah and with the blessings of Aba Al-Fadl Al-Abbas (peace be upon him) with the spiritual vigour of the workers of the Al-Abbas's (p) holy shrine with all its departments, we will overcome all obstacles, to make out of this moral and spiritual support a motivation to complete the process of work in this project."
