Iran Press/ Iran news: In his message, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani described this year’s Arbaeen procession as an unprecedented event that “displayed the power of Islam and dashed the hopes of the enemies, disappointing them even more”.
He wrote, “Today is the reminder of the memory of the dear small caravan in Karbala Desert, which has created enormous waves of vigilance and awakening throughout the entire world,” the official website of Iranian President reported.
“I wish that all pilgrims’ prayers are accepted and appreciate all religious groups and the Iraqi nation and government for their hospitality and taking care of the pilgrims,” he wrote.
President Rouhani added: “I would also like to appreciate all people who have been working for holding this divine event, especially ministries of Interior, Foreign Affairs, Roads and Urban Development, and Culture and Islamic Guidance, as well as the police, security forces, the Red Crescent Society, and Hajj and Pilgrimage Organisation.”
