Qom to be decorated on arrival anniv. of Fatemeh Masoumeh (AS)

Coinciding with the 23rd of Rabi al-Awal, the arrival anniversary of Hazrat Fatemeh Masoumeh (AS) from Saveh to Qom, the city of Qom and Beit al-Noor are going to be decorated.

The mayor of Qom Dr. Seyyed Morteza Saghaghiannejad has ordered to commemorate the anniversary of Hazrat Fatemeh Masoumeh’s arrival in Qom, by beautifying the city and the spiritual and historical place of Beit al-Noor.

On the third year of holding special programs for Qom Day, Qom Municipality plans to commemorate the day to strengthen the residents’ sense of belonging and urban identity and introduce the city’s various scientific and religious dimensions to the citizens.

Over the last three years, various programs have been performed to celebrate this historic day, which marked a turning point in the development of the city of Qom.

This year, Qom Municipality will implement 23 special cultural and artistic programs across the city on the eve of October 30 to celebrate the day.

In 2019, the Provincial Public Culture Council named the anniversary of the arrival of Hazrat Fatemeh Masoumeh (AS) in Qom, coinciding with the 23rd of Rabi al-Awal, as the ‘Day of Qom’.

Beit Al-Noor is the 17-day residence of Hazrat Fatemeh Masoumeh (AS) in Qom, which has been widely considered as a place of pilgrimage.
