The ceremony, which took place in Quds courtyard on April 28, was designed for Arab pilgrims. It started with the Holy Quran recitation, followed with a video clip of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution’s speech, and concluded with a lecture on ‘Quds Day, its significance, and fear of the Global Arrogance’ by Sheikh Muhammad Al-Za’bi, a professor from Al-Azhar University in Egypt. The ceremony was aimed at reviving this significant revolutionary occasion and encouraging pilgrims to attend Quds Day demonstrations.
Also, an international poetry night called ‘Al-Quds Lana’ (Quds belongs to us) was held in Persian, Urdu, Arabic, and Azeri languages starting at 21:00.
In another part of the event, kids presented the Quds message of the Leader of Islamic Revolution in Persian, Urdu, Arabic, and Azeri languages. This was followed by a declamation in Arabic and performance of a vocal group in five languages.
Quds courtyard of the holy shrine annually hosts a conceptual and visual exhibition for non-Iranian pilgrims to display Palestinians’ resistance and bravery in the face of the Israeli regime’s atrocities.
This year’s exhibition was underway between 9:00 am and 6:00 pm from April 28 to 29.
