In his meeting with many Pakistani delegations at his central office in Al-Najaf Al-Ashraf, His Eminence Ayatollah the religious authority Sheikh Bashir Al-Najafy (may Allah prolong his life) stressed the scientific and religious status that Al-Najaf Al-Ashraf enjoyed and its possession after Allah (Almighty) honored it by embracing the body of the cousin of His Messenger and the trustee of His Prophet, Commander of the Faithful Ali bin Abi Talib (peace be upon him) and a number of the bodies of the prophets, saints and righteous people.

He (may Allah prolong his life) indicated that it was and still is a center for religious and intellectual sciences, thanks to its scientific position, which produced many scholars and thinkers, and its presentation of moderate thought and discourse represented by the line and approach of the Ahlulbayt (peace be upon them) and the application of the principles of true Islam brought by our Noble Prophet (may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him).

His Eminence (may Allah prolong his life) also referred to the sign of accepting the visitation of the individual believer when he visits the shrine of the Commander of the Faithful and the rest of the sanctified shrines in Iraq and the positive change that occurs to him as a sign of accepting that visit.

He (may Allah prolong his life) prayed to Allah for everyone to be successful in performing their visit and their attendance from distant places to this holy city to have the honor of visiting the pure shrine and to learn about the history, virtues, and virtues of this city, and to be provided with supplies from its possessions.

On their part, the delegations expressed their thanks and gratitude to His Eminence (may Allah prolong his life), presenting before him many legitimate questions and problems for His Eminence to answer.
