Across the country, Youm-e-Ali is being celebrated with great fervour and intensity, along with heightened security for processions and Majlis honouring Hazrat Ali’s martyrdom (RA).
Important Youm-e-Ali processions will take place under tight security in Karachi, Lahore, Rawalpindi, and other major cities.
To prevent disturbances during processions attended by thousands of people, certain traffic and security protocols were implemented to guarantee the protection of both citizens and mourners.

In addition to processions, lectures, conferences, and seminars are planned, during which academics and zakirs will discuss the life of Prophet Muhammad’s cousin and son-in-law, Hazrat Ali (R.A.) (SAW).
