Month of Safar

In addition to elegies, communal meals known as ‘Taqreeb’ are often distributed. These meals act as a means of conveying empathy and spreading the teachings of Imam Hussain. Attendees partake in these meals as a gesture of solidarity with the oppressed, enhancing their connection to ethical practices championed by Imam Hussain.

Other communal practices include series of lectures (majalis) that recount the events of Karbala and explore their implications on contemporary issues. These discourses often delve into themes associated with justice, leadership, and the moral responsibilities of individuals and communities.
