With regard to the upcoming occasion of Fatimiyyah (the martyrdom of Lady Fatimah peace be upon her), considering the current pandemic (COVID-19) in Iran and all over the world please kindly inform us about your valuable opinion on holding the commemorative mourning ceremonies of Fatimiyyah.

Fatimiyyah must not be shut and stopped. Rather, it ought to be held and conducted in the best manner possible but with the consideration of all the health issues and what the experts in this area suggest.
