Yesterday the Shia community ion Mumbai celebrated 13 Rajjab , a month on which Hazrat Alis birthday falls, he is also known as Imam Ali and was born in the holy precincts of the holy Kaaba.

This is one great and awesome day, every house has a event called Nazar, Kheer and Channa , is served , ours was a very grand affair, we had Zam Zam Pilav, a mixture of nine type of ingredients including chicken, this was a ladies function, so my computer was out of bounds..

I shot pictures of the table display..and tasted the kheer which was absolutely delicious..
At Kaisar Bagh there was a procession commemorating the same I did not go, I had to baby sit Marziya at my shop.

I will post the pictures after I finish my Ajmer lot of this series.

My computer is giving me a lot of trouble as mentioned earlier, because of some virus intrusion I think..

This is merely an Introduction to 13 Rajjab at my house..

I also shot a few pictures of 13 Rajjab at my computer tech Ashiq's house .

yeh shaam , shaam e ali
meri har saans he banaam e ali
fakhr se jhum jhum jata hoon
jab khaey koie mujhe Ghulam E Ali.
