According to  ABNA.IR – The security office of Saudi Arabian cities expressed – the direction which comes from the interior ministry of Saudi Arabia – celebrate such rituals after the 12pm during the holly month of Ramadan will threat the security of the country so it became prohibited.

The managers and custodians of the Shia Mosques and Husseiniyas forced to singing the warranty and accept if any ritual after the midnight held Mosques or Husseiniya will be plump and its manager will be seized. All the managers and custodians stood against the direction of the security authorities and didn’t signature the warranty and knew it as a apposition against the freedom of religion specially in holly month of Ramadan which is the month of pray, worship, vigil.

In this way, with the direction of the interior ministry of Saudi Arabia it seems the Saudi Shia will face with problems to perform the Qadrs night Ihya and the security forces will obstacle the rituals in the Mosques and the Husseiniyas.

These acts of the interior ministry and the other authorities of Saudi Arabia will make anger not only the Shias rather the all Muslims around the world.
