Enye yezona ndawo zonqulo zintle Irakh kwisixeko esingcwele INajaf. Usuku esinokundwendwela eli lizwe lakudala njengabakhenkethi abaqhelekileyo, andizukuthandabuza ukutyelela esi sixeko singcwele samaSilamsi esikumgama omalunga neekhilomitha ezingama-600 kumazantsi eBaghdad. nantsi Iman Ali Mosque, AmaSulumane amaShiite, indawo yesithathu ebaluleke kakhulu emhlabeni emva kweMecca neMedina. Imbali isixelela ukuba ngonyaka wama-632 wasweleka uMprofeti uMuhammad kwaza ekufeni kwakhe kwabakho umlo wokuba ngubani oyakuba yinkokheli yama-Islam. Kwakukho amaqela amabini athi ekugqibeleni abizwa ngokuba ngamaShiites kunye namaSunni kwaye apha eNajaf i-mosque yenye yeyokuqala.
I-mosque isebenza njengendawo yokubalekela ingcwaba lika-Iman Ali, umlamu kaMuhammad owenziwa umfel 'ukholo nosanta ngamaSilamsi amaShiite. Ngale nto uNajaf, ukusweleka kuka-Ali ngo-666 AD, ukubulawa kwakhe, yindawo ye uhambo lwezenkolo. Kwixa elizayo amaShiite esi salamane sisondeleyo sikaMuhammad kuye kwafuneka ukuba sibe ngumlandeli wakhe wendalo yiyo loo nto bemngcwalisa. Akwaziwa nokuba angcwatyelwe apha, mhlawumbi ingcwaba lakhe lise-Afghanistan emva kwayo yonke loo nto, kodwa inyani kukuba i-mosque yeyesithathu ebaluleke kakhulu kuluntu lwamaSilamsi kwaye sisikolo senkolo. Kwaye enye inyani yembali, edumileyo UAyatollah Komeini Wayehlala elubhacweni apha phakathi ko '56 no -78 ekhokelela kwinkcaso ngokuchasene no-Shah wase-Iran. Ngokubhekisele kwisakhiwo, siye sanomonakalo omkhulu kunye nobusela ezandleni zikarhulumente waseIraq obesoloko engoyena mntu ubengumSunni ubuncinci kude kube yimfazwe yase-Iraq.
I-mosque ihlanjwe ngegolide kwaye ine-7.777 yeetayile zegolide ecocekileyo kwidome yayo. Ikwanemitha yeemitha ezingama-35 eziphakamileyo, nayo ihonjisiwe kwaye nganye ineetayile zegolide ezingamawaka angama-40. Ngaphakathi intle kwaye intle, ineetayile ezibukwayo kunye neendonga zesilivere kunye nobutyebi obuxabisekileyo obenziwe yiminikelo eyenziwe kuyo ngabantu abahlukeneyo. Nokuba ivela ngaphandle, kufanelekile ukuyibona. Ndiyathemba ukuba ihlala ixesha elide kwaye singayazi ngaphandle koloyiko lokunyathela kule nxalenye yehlabathi.
