In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate.

The Global Imams Council extends its heartfelt condolences to the Muslim Ummah on the occasion of the Arbaeen of Imam Hussain (peace be upon him), along with his noble family and devoted companions (may Allah’s mercy be upon them).

This monumental event stands unparalleled in history as a symbol of sacrifice and the struggle for freedom, justice, and the pursuit of rights, even at the cost of life, family, companions, and wealth. Imam Hussain, peace be upon him, serves as the ultimate exemplar for all of humanity, a beacon guiding those who seek a dignified life in this world and the hereafter.

The world will soon witness the largest human gathering and the most significant pilgrimage on foot, unrivaled by any other global event, during the blessed Arbaeen pilgrimage. Devotees of Imam Hussain (a.s) will journey hundreds of thousands of meters on foot, converging upon his sacred shrine. Processions and organizations will stretch far and wide, as the Iraqi people open their homes and hearts to the pilgrims, showcasing the epitome of genuine Iraqi generosity and hospitality, earning them the distinction as the most hospitable nation on earth. May their deeds and efforts be blessed, and may Allah accept the devotion of the pilgrims and the service of those who host them, as they collectively share in the sorrow of the Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon Him and His Family).

Furthermore, Arbaeen brings together hearts and aligns all ranks under the banner of Imam Hussain (peace be upon him). This display of unity highlights the solidarity of the Muslim Ummah in upholding justice and defending the oppressed.
