Simultaneously with the arrival of the second decade of the Fatemiyeh days and on the eve of the martyrdom anniversary of حضرت فاطمه زهرا (S), the black flag of Fatemi mourning was raised in Mellat Park in Tehran.
The raising of the black flag in one of the city's well-known parks is a sign of the آغاز or commemoration of the Fatemi mourning days; a ritual that, alongside the holding of religious ceremonies, provides an opportunity to remember the status of حضرت فاطمه زهرا (S) and her conduct in the public space of the city.
