Heaven on Earth. The resting place for one of the two leaders of youth in paradise.

IMAM HUSSAIN SHRINEThe Shrine of Imam Hussain ibn Ali is one of the oldest and renowned sites of pilgrimage which comprises the mosque and burial site of Imam Husayn Ibn Ali the third Imam of Shia Islam in the city of Karbala, Iraq.Unlike any other city, Karbala has its named engraved in the memory of generations, and in the expanse of the Muslim world...Believers remember that name with sorrow and distress, for they remember the history of the master of all martyrs, Imam Husayn, peace be upon him, and his sacrifice for Islam.The wave of visitors never stopped coming to Karbala, from the time the Umayyad and Abbaside caliphs prevented the construction of the shrines to the time the believers were able to build the precinct, despite the hardships and difficulties imposed on them.And today, since Karbala is witnessing new calamities, and the mausoleums of Imam Husayn [a] and his companions are subjected to destruction and neglect, and visitors are prevented from reaching that place, it is suitable to familiarize ourselves with Karbala...Two main roads lead the visitor to Karbala. One is from the Iraqi capital Baghdad, through Al-Musails, and the other is from the holy city of Najaf. However, either one excites the visitor with its greenish scenery along the sides.Upon reaching Karbala, the holy place would draw the visitors attention to its glorious minarets and domes shining due to the light of its lord.At the citys entrance, the visitor finds a row of houses decorated with wooden columns, and while proceeding further towards the holy mausoleum, he sees architecture similar, to some extent, to modern ones.Upon reaching the holy shrine, one finds himself in front of a boundary wall that surrounds wooden gates covered with glass decorations, and when one enters one of those gates, he enters a precinct surrounded by small rooms called “I wans”.The holy grave is located in the middle of the precinct, surrounded by square shaped structures called “Rawaq”.The grave itself is located in the middle of the grave site with golden windows around it, with beautiful illumination. It really is something great to see.

Ive been living in Karbala for more than ten years, but I didnt know the feeling of people who couldnt come and visit this beautiful paradise on earth until I traveled outside Iraq for two years, it was hard to be away. Far from Imam Hussain, the place that can make you happy whenever I go there, every time I go there I feel a power that helps clean my soul, my sadness, and being more closer to God, no one knows this feeling except the people who visited this place.🌷🌷

Its a great place to visit with its wonderful details in every room and every wall , one thing that might ruin your trip is when its Thursday because it will be so crowded with people

The crowd is necrophiliac!!People are rubbing themselves against a dead mans shrine and kissing it!!!I hear he was buried headless.😵‍💫

Wonderful Holy place

Most Holy place on Earth after Makkah and Madinah. One must visit atleast once in their lifetime. Salaam Ya Hussain (as).

Will visit and share all information and pictures

The Hussainiya shrine is located in the center of the city of Karbala. History reported that the first people to care for the tomb were the tribe of Bani Asad. Together with Imam al-Sajjad, they contributed to the burial of the body of Imam al-Husayn. And when Al-Mukhtar bin Abi Ubaid Al-Thaqafi took over the command in Kufa in the year 65 A.H., a building was built on it, and there was a shed on the tomb and around it was a mosque. This mosque has two doors, one towards the south and the other towards the east. Then the architecture took place during the time of Al-Ma’moun and Al-Muntasir, who gave the shrine special care, the young da’i and the supporter of the Buwayhi state and others. I followed them and the buildings or expansion did not stop in addition to them, maintenance and restoration since then until nowThis kindergarten includes the tomb of Imam Hussein, and next to it are many graves, including the shrine of Ibrahim Al-Mujab, the shrine of Habib bin Mazahir Al-Asadi, the shrines of the companions of Al-Hussein who was with him in the battle of Karbala, Al-Qasim bin Al-Hassan and Ali Al-Akbar bin Al-Imam Al-Hussein bin Ali.The current threshold consists of a wide courtyard with an area of ​​15,000 square meters, with a sanctuary of 3,850 square meters in the middle, in which the tomb of Hussein bin Ali is located.The al-Husayni mausoleum is topped by a dome 37 meters high from the ground and is covered from bottom to top with gold. A two-meter long gold mast also rises above the dome. The dome is flanked by two gold-plated minarets. The number of golden bricks that covers them is 8024 blocks.

me and my family normally go to the imam al-hussain shrine for the ziyara and stay there for a day whenever we go to iraq. it’s really beautiful and an amazing experience despite being lost here one time but other than that i love it and would go again

Peace be on you, O Aba Abdullah! peace be on you, O son of the Messenger of Allah!peace be on you, O son of the commander of the faithfuls, the forebear of the successors!Peace be on you, O son of Faatimah, the choicest among the women of the worlds!Peace be on you, who was martyred while fighting heroically in the cause of Allah, the son of Allahs fearless warrior, you were isolated and had been attacked with a vengeance!Peace be on you and on those souls who had gathered in your camp, in your journey. I pray and invoke Allah to keep all of you tranquil and restful, for ever; so far I am alive, this is my prayer, and till nights and days follow each other.

It is literally heaven on Earth

Wonderful Holy place

Its nice place and full of people from all around the world, I visited on February 12, 2022, at the day time had a warm sunlight and in the night was almost cold. You should take off your shoes and put your backpack and camera outside of the shrines, but taking photos and walking with shoes on the way between the holy shrines are free and also some photographers are there to take photos of you and family. I think its ok for kids when its not so overcrowded.

Heaven on earth. Most lucky people get chance to visit heaven on earth and I was one of them. Nobody can ever explain the love, peace, contentment etc. about this place. Wish to visit again n again. Left withs tears and wish of coming back again.By the grace of Almighty Allah visited the paradise again and wish/prayed to be here many more times,Inshallah.

Heaven on Earth. Labbaik Ya HUSSAIN!

One of the most beautiful places I have been to. It is super clean, very organized despite all the people going their. It has a spiritual vibe to it. Also it is very safe. While you go their, you get free drinks and food in the road. Many people walking from other cities. I recommend visiting this place if you are in Karbala

Its paradise on earth, the place of barqat and hazat and rehmat

A truly out of this world experience, very humbling and I will revisit for sure. I will definitely recommend this holy place to everyone.

The shrine of Imam Hussein bin Ali bin Abi Talib (peace be upon him), grandson of the Messenger of God Muhammad (PBUH), and one of the most important religious symbols for Muslims in general and Shiites in particular.

Dont have words to express. Its worlds best spiritual place.

Best place in the world to visit

The best location for Prayer because imam Hussain sacrificed for God and God accept this action therefore acceptance of prayer rewards of imam Hussain pilgrims

السلام علیک یا ابا عبداللهThe source of revolution & spirituality! O Abaabdillah Im with you, with you & not with your enemy..فمعکم معکم لا مع عدوکم

Truly this is Allahs heaven on earth. One just stares in amazement at the splendour and grandeur of this shrine. 1400 years have passed since the death of Imam Hussain and yet the number of visitors to his shrine keeps in increasing every year.The shrine has different entrances from all side with the entrances being Baab e Qibla, Baab e Shuhuda. It is connected to the Imam Al Abbas shrine via the bain ul harmain. On one side is Tille Zainabiya and near by is the Al Safeer Hospital.The main market is opposite the Baab ul Sidra on Shahrah e Sidra with clothing and all sorts of gift items available.

This is holy place and its only for who believe on them.
