Adding: "Arabs were since the early times famous by their poesy, which is not only a litterature's reference but also a historical document that immortalized a lot of events, facts and characters.

And we want to speak about this prosperous moon Al-Abbas son of Imam Ali Ibn Abi Taleb (peace be upon all of them) we feel that the words can never describe him and would not express his status, as he was the role model for fidelity, steadfastness, fulfilment and altruism... he was the one who deserved to be the banner's bearer of the beloved grandson of the Holy Prophet (prayers and Allah's peace be upon him and his holy Household).

The virtues of this great hero make the believer who writes about him with deep insight honoured and proud, hoping to be a bit closer to him, our master and intercessor Aba Al-Fadl Al-Abbas (peace be upon him).

Noting: " We are pleased to held every year at this time this contest to listen to the valuable poets rhyming about the love and loyalty of the supporter of Ahl Al-Bayt (peace be upon them) the good servant Aba Al-Fadl Al-Abbas (peace be upon him). The participation this year is more interesting and more varied, four came from the land of Hijaz the land of two holy mosques, one from Syria, one of Bahrain and four came from the land of our beloved Imams (peace be upon them) Iraq. Asking the Almighty God the success for all participants."
