In an interview with IQNA, Hojat-ol-Islam Ahmad Sharafkhani added that organization of mourning ceremonies and paying attention to the emotional aspects of the Ashura event are important but what is more vital is institutionalizing the religious culture by elaborating on the objectives of Ashura.
He underlined that during the two lunar months of Muharram and Safar- in which ceremonies are held to mourn the martyrdom of Imam Hussein (AS) and his companions- the level of religious awareness and culture grows in the society.
Hojat-ol-Islam Sharafkhani urged all institutions and organizations to benefit from the opportunity in these two months to institutionalize the religious culture for the whole year.
