Majlis, Nauha & Matam in the City



Yesterday, Mumbai city witnessed lots of Azadari activities in different areas, from Dongri in South to Vasai Road in the North. Majalis for ladies & gents. Tabut, Juloos, Khandaq, Shabbedaari etc etc. It was the busiest Saturday for the lovers of Imam Husain (a.s.). Every where there was mourning, nauha, matam, masaeb.
But, one of the best masaeb was at Zainabia Imambada. Maulana Ghazanfar Abbas was at his best in Masaeb. He recited Majlis for about 2 hrs in which the masaeb were of 17.30 minutes. The crowd spilled over the street. A huge screen was put up for those who could not get a place inside the hall.
The night resembled to the Aashur one. The masaeb of Imam Husain (a.s.) when he was slaughtered thirsty by Shimr (curse of Allah upon him and his supporters). There was a lot of wailing by the crowd. There was not a single eye which did not had tears in it.
I have uploaded that particular masaeb for you to listen. The quality of video is weak, but, the audio one is fine. The file is big, it may take sometime to open. But, its worth waiting.
