Pars Today - The spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran, referring to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution’s request to the eulogist during the Ashura night ceremony, stated: “Historians will write that ‘Muharram 1404 was a beautiful manifestation of recourse to a 1400-year-old epic to protect Iran’s sanctity.’”

Esmaeil Baghaei wrote: “Recite for Iran, historians will write: Muharram 1404 was a beautiful manifestation of recourse to a 1400-year-old epic to protect Iran’s sanctity.”

The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson added: “And future generations will read: The night of Ashura 1404 (solar calendar) became the boiling point of the unity of Iran and Alawite Islam, when the son of Imam Ali (PBUH) asked the eulogist: #EyIranBekhan [Recite O Iran].”

The Ashura night mourning ceremony for Imam Hussein (PBUH), the third Shias’ Imam, was held on Saturday night with the presence of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, at the Imam Khomeini (God’s mercy upon him) Husseiniyah in Tehran.
