Mashhad - The head of the Council of Religious Boards of Mashhad said: The meeting of Fatimid mourners of Mashhad will be held from Shahada Square towards Razavi Shrine.

According to Mehr reporter, Mohammad Reza Safaei, in the Fatemieh press conference on Monday morning, while referring to the concerns in holding religious ceremonies and managing delegations, said: training responsible people who can serve their society and country at all times is one of the main goals of religious delegations. In the recent events and in the past years, we have seen that the delegations have performed their duties efficiently with the people wherever necessary, including accidents and diseases.

He added: In the current situation of the country, which is facing challenges and problems, the duties of the delegations have become more complicated, and strengthening the social atmosphere is one of the most important of these duties. Even now, we see that most of the night gatherings are centered on mosques and are organized by delegations.

Emphasizing the necessity of explaining the existing conditions for the youth, Safaei stated: One of our concerns is to identify the youth who can play a role in the system and society. It is the duty of the delegations to bring the youth to the work of the revolution by raising awareness.

Referring to the overseas actions of delegations, he said: The Council of Religious Boards has also provided services to pilgrims in Syria, Lebanon and Iraq. Also, inside the city of Mashhad, all our efforts are to facilitate the issuance of permits and preliminary measures, so that processionists can provide services without any worries; An issue that has led to the growth of the number of processions.

Safai further noted: We do not receive credit from the government budget and all actions are carried out by donors; The only assistance we receive is limited to the infrastructure measures that the municipality takes to facilitate matters such as providing sound, scaffolding and infrastructure items.

Head of the Council of Religious Boards of Mashhad, referring to upcoming plans for Fatemiyah, said: We will hold many processions in the city for Fatemiyah this year as well. One of the most important programs is the Martyr's morning gathering, which is held from Shahada Square to Motahar Razavi Shrine, as per the previous years' routine.

He also announced his support for the "Broken Gem" mourning, and emphasized that the council is with the founders for the coordination and development of such programs.

Safaei added: "Our effort is to ensure that, with careful planning, mourning does not harm public gatherings and city traffic and is held in the best way."
