Abstract EN

The city of Karbala was and still is a essential axis in perpetuating the momentum of moderation spreading the values of tolerance guiding society and spreading the spirit of community among the various classes of the Imai people.

hence it was the center of the national leadership of the poles of the great Iraqi revolution (1920 revolution); because of its religious and spiritual status in people's hearts in addition to the great role played by the religious authority (Muhammad Tagi al-Shiraz) in guiding the revolutionarily charting the revolution's path urging people to join it contributing to its mobilization and raising the morale of its heroes.

the spark of the first revolution was started in Karbala by imam al-shiraz's historical religious fata on January 23-1919 in which it was forbidden for Muslims to choose a non-muslin ruler to rule the country through a referendum conducted by the British occupation government after its occupation of Iraq it said: "it is forbidden for maims to elect and choose a non-muslin for the emirate and the sultanate over Muslims.

"This fatwa was signed by (17) seier scholars and dignitaries of Karbala and thus Karbala became the source and incubator of the revolution and the focus of the revolutionarists all over Iraq.

the second one : the preambles of the revolution and its spread in all cities of Iraq the third one : the role of the religious authority in Karbala in the events of the 1929 revolution.
