Arbaeen Walk in Mandi Bahauddin: Shrine Reopened After Protest

Shiite News: On the occasion of Arbaeen, Provincial Organizer of Majlis Wahdat-e-Muslimeen (MWM) Punjab, Hujjat-ul-Islam wal Muslimeen Allama Syed Ali Akbar Kazmi, paid a special visit to Mandi Bahauddin.

Upon his arrival, Allama Kazmi joined the Arbaeen Walk and proceeded on foot to Gujra, where he paid homage at the sacred replica of the shrine of Lady Zainab (S.A.).
Earlier, the local administration in Gujra, Mandi Bahauddin, had sealed the symbolic shrine of Lady Zainab (S.A.).

However, after widespread protest by mourners and negotiations led by scholars, the situation intensified with the arrival of the provincial president of MWM Punjab.

Consequently, the administration reopened the shrine, allowing all pilgrims who had reached Gujra through the Arbaeen Walk to offer salutations and condolences to Lady Zainab (S.A.).

On the occasion, Noha Khwans recited elegies and salutations, while mourning groups offered their condolences.

Zakireen highlighted the tragedies of the Ahlulbayt (A.S.) in connection with Arbaeen. Meanwhile, despite strict pressure from the administration to prevent the Arbaeen Walk in Mandi Bahauddin, people responded to the call of their leadership, left their homes, and joined the procession.

Defying obstacles, they successfully reached Gujra and continued their mission of remembrance for Imam Hussain (A.S.).
The local community, scholars, organizers of Majalis, representatives of Wahdat Youth, mourning group leaders, Noha Khwans, and both former and current organizational members warmly welcomed the provincial president’s visit and expressed their gratitude.
