I miss shamm

but i didnt see tht Umer Ibn Saad thing.
Is it a real man or someting?  

[Fasiha Jafri]

Yeah it's a real man. I think it was the Iraqis that did that juloos. At the beginning there was qama zain and later they brought a "representation" of the aftermath of Kerbala. They carried heads on spears and made "prisoners" with chains, etc. The man is acting like Umar-e-Saad.

I was in the third qafila with the people from California. The molana lived there, he didn't come from California or Houston. The lady that led the qafila with her brother was Azra Jafri.

Oh i see. I thot maybe they made a Man with wax or something. As when i went, nothing like this was brought up, and i see so many changes, spceially Hazrat Habeel's place, its changed soo much!
