Some Pictures of Karbala

The above picture of the place known as "Maqam of Imam-e-Zamana (a.s.)". I took these photographs while I was in Karbala & Najaf during the month of Rajab. All the below Photos are of the same month and during the same visit.

The above picture is of "alqama" in Karbala near the shrine of Hazrat Imam Husain (a.s.).
The 4 wheeler vehicles are not allowed some 500 metres near the Shrines of Imam Husain (a.s.) and Hazrat Abbas (a.s.) due to security reasons. So the 3 wheelers such as tempos carry passengers around the shrines.
The Shrine of Imam Husain (a.s.). One of the minaret is under repair.
"Talla-e-Zainabia". It is opposite the qatlgaah. A mound where Janab-e-Zainab (a.s.) stood while her brother Hazrat Imam Husain (a.s.) was slaughtered by the accursed Shimr.
This photo is of "khaymagaah" which is under construction.
A tea stall in Karbala. They sell black tea and prepare it hard, add a lot of sugar in it.

Your pictures have captured something deep, ordinary and subtile, which most dont.
