The arbaeen march, or pilgrimage, was being held throughout different eras in the Islamic history of the shia sect. it was especially held during the time of sheik Morteza Ansari very bombastically and gloriously. But after him, the rite was forgotten and even many would consider it a rite belonging to the poor.
