On December 27, 2009, a significant event took place in Hong Kong's history as the Shia Asna-I-Ashri Association Limited organized its first-ever Juloos-e-Aza for the 9th Muharram, 1431H. This gathering drew together the community to commemorate the martyrdom of Imam Hussain (AS) through traditional practices such as Alam procession, banners, Noha Khwani, and Matam. Held at the Imam Bargah, this momentous occasion highlighted the vibrant Shia culture and the commitment to preserving religious observances in the city, which is a key gateway to China.
