The ceremony, which was held in the courtyard overlooking the Qibla gate of the shrine of Aba al-Fadl al-Abbas (peace be upon him), was attended by the secretary general of the Abbas's (p) holy shrine; Sayed Mustafa Mortadha Dhea' Uddin, the director of the Office of its Senior Official; Dr. Afdhal al-Shami, the governor of Karbala; engineer Nasif Jassim al-Khattabi, a number of officials of the holy shrine, heads of its departments and its employees, as well as delegations and personalities representing many parties, in addition to a large number of visitors.

The celebration began with the recitation of verses from the Holy Quran, which was read by the reader of the Al-Abbas's (p) Holy Shrine; Sayed Haydar Gelokhan, followed by the speech of the general secretariat of the Al-Abbas's (p) holy shrine delivered by the head of the Department of Religious Affairs; Sheikh Salah al-Karbalai, who began by congratulating those present and the Islamic nation on the auspicious birth anniversaries of the Sha'ban moons, and explained the importance of celebrating such occasions based of the narration of Imam as-Sadeq (peace be upon him) saying: (Our Shiites rejoice for our joy and grieve for our sorrow)...".

Sheikh al-Karbalai stressed that " the lovers of Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them) in all the Islamic world, look at the Holy Karbala, and how it is reviving the matter of Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them), And therefore we call on institutions, civil society organizations, scientific institutes, intellectuals and heads of families to revive the culture of joy as the imams of Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them) wanted".

At the end of his speech, al-Karbalai stressed "the importance of educating the heart and the psychological feeling that there is a special occasion and finding a real alternative to imported images for the celebration, to deepen the practice of joy rituals on the occasions of Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them)".

After that, the audience listened to a selection of poems delivered by the poets of Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them), namely the poet Ali al-Saffar al-Karbalai, the poet Karrar al-Greyti and the poet Firas al-Asadi, as well as there were chants co-presented by Mohammed Amir al-Tamimi and Yasser al-Karbalai.

After that, the names of the ten winners of the cultural competition prepared by the general secretariat of the Al-Abbas's (p) holy shrine on the sidelines of the celebrations of the holy birth anniversaries during the holy month of Sha'ban, were announced, and it is hoped that the celebration will resume tomorrow Friday in the Shrine's courtyard of Aba al-Fadl al-Abbas (peace be upon him), and will include various festive activities.
