Al-Shammari said that"the pavilion of the Al-Abbas's (p) Shrine is distinguished by its multiplicity of titles, which have reached a hundred titles, of religious and cultural literature that receive a high degree of attention".
He added," We commend the participation of the Al-Abbas's(p) holy shrine in this exhibition, "stressing that"it has a distinct role in spreading the sciences of the Ahl Al-Bayt (peace be upon them), especially since this comes under the auspices of its Senior Official; Sayed Ahmad al-Safi".
