About this day
This day marks the entrance of Sayyida Fatima al-Masuma (a) into Qom, and the observance is tied to that city in particular. The year is reported as either 200 or 201 AH, the day does not appear on either of the Australian calendars the Centre follows, and the Centre keeps no programme for it.
