The Arbaeen Pilgrimage, observed 40 days after the martyrdom of Imam Hussein, draws tens of millions globally, standing as the largest peaceful gathering in the world—an act of love, devotion, and solidarity walking toward Karbala. Pilgrims typically begin the journey in Najaf, then walk about 80 km to Karbala, united in devotion despite the challenges of the desert heat, supported all along by volunteer service tents and cultural unity.
