Ta’ziya at Female Prison in Homeland

However, during 150 years of the Qajar rule in Iran, the rule of Nasir al-Din Shah (1264/1847 – 1313/1895) was the period of Ta’ziya’s development and glory, especially in Tehran. Nasir al-Din Shah showed so much interest about performing Ta’ziya and in every Muharram, if he was, he would certainly go to government Takiyyas for watching Shabih Khani and if he was out of Tehran, he would go to local Takiyyas. He encouraged government agents and officials responsible in holding Ta’ziya sessions to make the sessions and plays more attractive.
