Khadijeh Salehi, along with a group of 100 graduate students from the Al-Mustafa International University attended the Razavi Holy Shrine and benefited various programs prepared for them by Astan Quds Razavi Center for International Affairs.
On the sidelines of the attending the Razavi Holy Shrine, she said, "I began to tremble excitedly as I looked at the golden dome of the Razavi Holy Shrine. From the very beginning of our entry to the shrine of Ali ibn Musa al-Reza (A.S.), I forgot all the problems of the world and I felt completely safe in this place."
This Indian pilgrim who is a graduate of theology from the Bent al-Huda seminary continued, "When I was very young, I lived in Iran. I entered the seminary after graduating from high school. I studied in the seminary for twelve years, and was dispatched to India for teaching though I disliked it."
Salehi remarked, "This trip took place again after five years, and I was waiting restlessly to arrive in this place. I had a strange nostalgia; as soon as I saw the golden dome and the courtyard of this sacred place, I had a feeling of happiness and vitality that nowhere in the world can be found."
"We visited different sections of Astan Quds Razavi Museum; the section of the holy burial chamber and the old doors was very attractive", she added.
She expressed satisfaction with the services provided by Astan Quds Razavi adding that this holy place offers plenty of services to non-Iranian pilgrims with careful planning and management, which is remarkable. She also appreciated the servants of Astan Quds Razavi for offering cultural services to non-Iranian pilgrims and wished them good health and good luck.
It is worth mentioning that the group had come from 35 countries, including France, China, Mali, Madagascar, Nigeria, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Lebanon, and so on.
