As the holy
month of Ramadan neared its end, Muslims all over the world prepared
themselves for the great day of Eid Al-Fitr. This glorious day witnesses
millions of people heading in flocks to Mosques all over the world to
perform the prayer of Salat Al-Eid. Among the flocks were the citizens
of Karbala, as they all headed to the shrine of Imam Hussein to perform
the prayer. Ayatollah Al-Qazwini led the masses in the prayer. Following
the prayer, his eminence delivered a sermon, Khutbat Al-Eid. The
Ayatollah spoke about the benefits of the month of Ramadan and about the
importance of Eid Al-Fitr. During the second part of his speech,
Ayatollah Al-Qazwini spoke about the unstable situation in Iraq. He also
spoke about the upcoming elections in Iraq and our responsibilities
towards the elections. Following the Ayatollah's speech, his son, Sayid
Hussein Al-Qazwini prayed Salat Al-Eid a second time as not all people found space to pray with first prayer. |
