The 15th day of Sha’aban, or Nimeh Sha’aban, which marks the birthday of Imam Zaman (AS), falls on Wednesday, March 8, this year.
Every year, millions of Shia Muslims around the world hold festivities to honor the event.
On this auspicious occasion, the Jamkaran Mosque is also visited by hundreds of thousands of worshippers.
The World Assembly of Shiite Studies was established in 2003 (1382 AH) by a group of scholars from seminaries and universities. The purpose of founding this independent academic institution was to introduce the school of Shi‘ism and defend its legitimacy through education, research, translation and publication, communications, and Islamic promotion. This center has continued its mission with strength and determination and envisions a bright future ahead.
