Arbaeen Juloos in Mumbai. Which starts from Zainabia and terminates at Rehmatabad (graveyard at Mazgaon). The route is Zainabia-Moghul Masjid-JJ hospital-Noor Baugh-Mazgaon Sales Tax Office-Rehmatabad. The crowd in juloos was approx. above 3 lakhs. 99.9% wearing black clothes. Over 100 Anjumans participated and about 30 NGO's distributed tabarruk (refreshments) . Trucks and tempos distributing drinking water were more than 25. Tens of ambulances. Many First-Aid teams. The Arbaeen Juloos attendance is the highest in comparision to other Azadari Julooses. The Azadars skip their jobs and services or work for only first half day in their respective offices. Those in business close their shops and establishments for the day.
