Guesthouses
To ensure the comfort and well-being of pilgrims, the Al-Alawi Holy Shrine, in addition to its central guesthouse, has set up dozens of temporary guesthouses and hospitality pavilions (madhif) around the holy shrine and on the streets leading to it, specifically to receive and serve the pilgrims.
Pilgrims can easily identify these locations by following signs and banners bearing titles such as “Guesthouse of Amir al-Muminin” or “Hospitality Pavilion of Amir al-Muminin.”
Services
Distribution of millions of blessed meals during three main daily servings — breakfast, lunch, and dinner — as well as several snacks throughout the day, offered to Arbaeen pilgrims.
