The Sindh Education Department has issued an official statement declaring the closure of both private and public schools on September 7. This directive has been established by the education department’s steering committee.
September 7 is marked as a day of solemn remembrance, with mourning processions scheduled to take place in various cities and towns throughout the country. These gatherings are held to pay tribute to the martyrs of Karbala.
Chehlum, observed 40 days after Ashura, commemorates the profound sacrifice of Hazrat Imam Hussain (RA) and his 72 loyal companions who laid down their lives in the historic Battle of Karbala in the year 61 A.H.
