It is an act that deepens our devotion and love for Imam Hussain (A.S.). This pilgrimage retraces the footsteps of our fourth Imam (A.S.), who walked in chains in the aftermath of Karbala. It brings us closer to the Ahlul Bait (A.S.) and offers a powerful opportunity to reflect on our lives and our relationship with the Masumeen (A.S.).
If one is fortunate enough to perform the Ziarat of Imam Hussain (A.S.) and his brother Mola Abbas Alamdar (A.S.) on Arba’een, then walking from Najaf to Karbala is truly a blessing not to be missed. As a guest of the most generous Imam during this sacred journey, you need not worry about food, rest, or other essentials—everything is provided with love and devotion. As a Zair of Imam Hussain (A.S.), you are deeply honored and will be cared for in ways beyond your imagination by those who consider it a privilege to serve you. Begin this journey with a heart full of gratitude, and honour the Iraqi hosts with the utmost respect and appreciation for their incredible hospitality.
