In these guidelines, the issue of the Covid-19 outbreak was also considered so that these centers could convey the message of Imam Hussain (a.s.) to the people of the world, despite the limitations caused by the virus outbreak,” he added.
“Before Muharram, the Ashura International Foundation produced seven 30-minute clips, each containing 15 minutes of speeches by figures such as Ayatollah Ramazani, Ayatollah Akhtari, Ayatollah Araki, and Ayatollah Sheikh Issa Qasem.

The subjects of these letters were the Ashura movement, the philosophy of the uprising of Imam Hussain (a.s.), and the introduction of the Ashura Foundation and its goals. In his letters, Ayatollah Akhtari asked these figures and institutions to cooperate in explaining the teachings of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) and the Ashura movement in the world,” he continued.
“The International Ashura Foundation has also prepared a draft memorandum of cooperation with the Holy Shrine of Imam Hussain (a.s.). The draft mentions joint activities, including webinars, authoring, and research,” Khakrand added.
“On Arbaeen this year, Despite the existing restrictions, the Foundation printed banners in Arabic, and they were installed during the Arbaeen pilgrimage in Mawkebs, such as the Mawkeb of Imam Reza (a.s.) and the Mawkeb of “Neda al-Aqsa”. Also, the products of the International Ashura Foundation were prepared on CDs with the logo of the Foundation and were made available to pilgrims. The CDs contained products such as lectures, books, encyclopedias, and art clips,” he said, referring to the activities of the International Ashura Foundation during the Arbaeen pilgrimage this year.
“The movement of Imam Hussain (a.s.) is a heat that is always burning in the hearts. Enthusiasts of Imam Hussain (a.s.) always love to participate in the Arbaeen Walk. However, restrictions imposed due to the Covid-19 outbreak led to strict regulations. while it was possible to facilitate the presence of pilgrims in the Arbaeen Walk, a walk that is unique in history. People were dissatisfied with these actions; measures that prevented Iranian pilgrims from participating in the Arbaeen pilgrimage with large crowds. I hope that this disease will disappear as soon as possible and next year we will see the enthusiastic presence of Iranians who love Imam Hussain (a.s.) in the Arbaeen Walk,” said the Deputy for International Affairs of the Ashura International Foundation, referring to the impact of restrictions due to the outbreak of Covid-19 on the presence of Iranian pilgrims at the Arbaeen ceremony.
“According to the mission of the International Ashura Foundation, the Board of Trustees and the Board of Directors of the Foundation call on the officials of the Islamic Republic of Iran to pay more attention to the Foundation and provide the necessary funds for it to fulfill its mission. Ashura International Foundation can play a great role abroad but the shortcomings of this foundation must be compensated. We owe all our assets to Imam Hussain (a.s.) and the thoughts and ideas of the Infallible Imams (a.s.) and the school of AhlulBayt (a.s.). We must introduce this resuscitative school to global audiences outside of Iran through artistic and up-to-date methods. If these audiences understand the facts, they will learn the lesson of resistance and fighting oppression from Imam Hussain (a.s.) and they can consider Imam Hussain (a.s.) as their role model,” he mentioned.
