The Transportation Department of the Holy Alawi Shrine announced its active participation in early-stage service planning for the anniversary of the martyrdom of Imam Hasan al-Askari (peace be upon him).
These efforts include transporting hundreds of servants from volunteer delegations across various provinces to the city of Samarra, so that they may take part in serving the multitude of pilgrims who will come to the city to mark this heart-rending occasion.
Sabah al-Tarafi, head of the Vehicles Unit, told the Shrine’s News Center:
“By order of the Deputy Custodian of the Holy Alawi Shrine and in coordination with officials of the Holy Askari Shrine, we took part in transporting servants using 14 buses from the provinces of Baghdad, Diyala, Babil, and al-Muthanna.”
It is worth noting that the Deputy Custodian of the Holy Alawi Shrine has ordered the formation of a committee to organize and dispatch a service Mawkib to the city of Samarra.
This Mawkib will operate with the participation of various departments of the Holy Alawi Shrine, and, by providing a range of services, will support the service efforts of the Holy Askari Shrine that are already underway.
