The Khosravi border crossing between Iran and Iraq, which is located in the Iranian city of Qasr-e Shirin, is 300 kilometers away from the Iraqi city of Karbala; so, the border crossing is one of the main points to reach Imam Hossein’s holy shrine. Some 287,219 Iranian pilgrims have crossed the border point for Iraq in just eight days leading up to Arbaeen mourning day. Shia Muslims worldwide mark the Arbaeen or the 40th day after the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hossein (AS). (IRNA photos/Bahman Zarei)
