The holy shrine of Hazrat Zainab, peace be upon her, in Damascus, is a sacred threshold and a center of affection for lovers of the family of innocence and purity. A court that keeps the name of the lady of patience and messenger of Ashura saga alive in hearts. The dome and garlands of this shrine, along with the courtyards and Islamic architectural manifestations, tell the story of the deep connection of the devotees of Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them) with the sacred area of Aqilah Bani Hashem and the lasting legacy of Karbala.
