In the city of Najaf, Iraq, lies a cemetery named Wadi us Salaam, the graveyard is like no other in the world. Wadi us Salaam, which translates to the "Valley of Peace," is not only the world's largest cemetery but also a place of profound significance. During their pilgrimage to Iraq, Shia Muslims from across the world also visit Wadi us Salaam and many from Mumbai, who have visited Wadi us Salaam, say the site is unbelievable.

This year, Vasi Sayed, a Bandra resident visited Iraq for pilgrimage and made a visit to Wadi us Salaam. Narrating his experience, Wasi told mid-day.com, "I have been visiting Iraq for Arbaeen of Imam Hussain ibn Ali, the grandson of prophet Muhammad for years and I always pay a visit to Wadi us Salaam everytime I visit Najaf. The cemetery is extremely huge. During my last visit when I was at Wadi Us Salaam, I witnessed several departed souls being buried there. Since Imam Ali, the cousin and son-in-law of Prophet Muhammad's shrine is close by, people there first take the janaza of the departed soul to the Shrine of Imam Ali and then bring it to Wadi us Salaam to bury. Since Imam Ali's shrine is close to Wadi us Salaam, it holds great religious significance for a departed soul to be buried there."
