Tehran – Boucher province travels across the southwest of Iran to Karbala, Iraq, hosting pilgrims who take part in the religious rituals of Abain.
The state plays an important role in providing pilgrims and rendering services to pilgrims in other southern and eastern states of the country, Mehr News Agency writes.
Due to its geographical circumstances, Bucher is considered one of the gateways for pilgrims from states such as parts of Fars, such as Hormozgan, Cistan Balchestan, Carman, and even Karbala, starting toilets towards Kalbala and crossing the Bucher province route.
A large number of Mookevs (service centres of a religious nature in which Shia Muslims gather together to perform religious rituals during Aaaain) were launched in Bucher Province to serve pilgrims.
Abdreza Motaf, a senior official from Bucher Province, said: “Every year, we witness the Bucher people serving pilgrims during Aaaain. Rehabilitation and feeding of pilgrims is the most important issue in this regard.”
He explained that 230 Mookevs are active in cities on the border of Asarouye, Bandar Deiram and Sharanche. Some bushelmuks operate across the Iraqi soils of Najaf and Karbala, and there is a walking route between them, he added.
He noted that the mooks within Buchere are located in busy routes and religious cities in Buchere.
Mookebs will also be available in Khuzestan. Considering that the main exit boundaries of Albainian pilgrims include Sharanche and Chazabeth of Khuhzestan, where people firing Mookevs at Buscher, are firing Mookevs at these borders,
Gholamhossein Ahmadi, who launched Mookeb at Bushehr, said that all services are needed and special accuracy and care is provided, from preparing logistic items to sending voluntary and professional forces such as doctors, nurses, chefs, cultural servants, and enforcers.
Mookev also provides cultural activities that include congregational prayers, religious speeches and pilgrim responses to religious issues.
Furthermore, Governor Bucher General Arsaran Zarre named Bucher “Talik or Hussein.”
One of the world’s largest religious gatherings, Albain marks the end of a 40-day period of mourning that continued the martial teaching of Imam Hussein (AS) and his fellow martials at the Battle of Karbara in 680 AD.
Every year, millions of Shia Muslims around the world embark on this pilgrimage on Kalbara, walking hundreds of kilometers as an expression of their faith and devotion.
