The Media Department of the Holy Shrine of Imam Hussain organized the third public forum in Istanbul under the slogan “Hussain, the Symbol of Our Unity”, with a large public attendance.
In his address at the forum, the representative of the Holy Shrine, Sheikh Ali Al-Qaraawi, stated:
“By the grace of God, this third international public forum has been held with the presence of a large gathering from Istanbul’s residents of various beliefs and languages. The assembly of these lovers and mourners of Hussain is of great significance.”
Al-Qaraawi highlighted, “Imam Hussain (peace be upon him) rose for the unity of Islam and Muslims, and to uphold an Islam free from extremism. Today, the people of Istanbul embody this eternal stance of Imam Hussain through their remarkable presence and engagement with the timeless cause of Imam Hussain.”
Meanwhile, Mr. Sabah Al-Talqani, Director of the Imam Hussain Center in Istanbul affiliated with the Holy Shrine, explained, “This international forum is being held for the third consecutive year in Istanbul, organized by the Imam Hussain Center of the Media Department at the Holy Shrine, witnessing notable attendance from the people of Istanbul.”
Al-Talqani added, “The forum included special segments, such as a speech by Sheikh Ali Al-Qaraawi, a speech by the Media Department delivered by the Assistant Head, Mr. Al-Hassan Ne’ma Al-Khafaji, highlighting the role of Hussaini media in conveying the principles and teachings of Ahlulbayt and the blessed message of Imam Hussain. There was also a screening of documentaries, one of which showcased the Shrine’s services to pilgrims in Karbala.”
He further noted, “The forum featured the distribution of prepared booklets in Turkish about the lives and virtues of Ahlulbayt, and the biography and uprising of Imam Hussain, along with a photographic exhibition of the Shrine’s projects and general scenes from Karbala. A key feature was the Banner of Imam Hussain activity, where attendees personally wrote ‘Ya Hussain’ as an expression of their love for Imam Hussain and the pure Ahlulbayt (peace be upon them).”
