Hawzah News: What is the reason for the silence of the western media when it comes to the huge and exceptional Arbaeen Walk?

We should not expect media coverage from the West on the Arbaeen procession. Because they are plotting against us Muslims and our false expectation from the westerners to reflect the greatness of the Arbaeen procession leads to their satisfaction. The message of Arbaeen procession is the support of Islamic religion and civilization. The gathering of millions of people around the great character of Imam Hussain (PBUH) shows that the spirit of Islam is alive among the people and emphasizes that this religion serves as the center and axis. Characters like Imam Hussain (PBUH) correct the mistakes of some Muslims and establish internal reforms.
