As usual, on the days of special Ziyarat, its external outlets open for the distribution of these meals. This is because of the great momentum of the visitors who are rushing to eat food cooked inside the holy shrine of Aba al-Fadl al-Abbas (peace be upon him), considering it a blessing. These meals are distributed in the afternoon after Dhuhr and Asr prayers, because the visitors' greater numbers at this time commensurate with the sanctity of the occasion.
