During these days, Muslims hold various ceremonies in memory of Lady Fatimah (peace be upon her) and her sufferings. Alavi pointed out that these days can be an opportunity to promote the Ashura culture and the teachings of the Ahlul Bayt, calling for the synergy of all institutions and organizations to hold these ceremonies as well as possible.
