Answer

In the name of Allah, we mentioned in our statement before the masses rushed to visit Imam Hussain (PBUH) that full precaution and prevention are sufficient. It is impossible for a person living among others on this earth to avoid all forms of contact. Ask yourself, my son, do you not sit with your family? Do you not buy fruits, vegetables, bread, and other things that have been touched by others? Do you not approach these items? Does the nursing mother not embrace her infant? Wake up if you are asleep. Be informed that the visit to Imam Hussain (PBUH), and similar acts, are carried out in compliance with Allah’s commands, seeking His mercy and desiring the intercession of Hussain (PBUH) to protect us from this calamity, the epidemic, and other afflictions. Peace be upon those who follow the guidance.
