The symposium, in which the assistant lecturer, Muhammad Khalis Ibrahim, lectured, included the popular heritage acquired by the people through the historical legacy of the Husseini cause in the various regions, and the customs that individuals were brought up with through the impact that the Husseini cause had on the souls of the people. In belief in the Husseini cause, the popular heritage must be included within the context. The Husseini line represented by Husseini theater and the approach adopted by government institutions and the holy shrines by launching a prominent title and an important theatrical term, which is Husseini theater, which specializes in Husseini thought and the Husseini issue. The symposium came by introducing different elements that contain innovation and moving away from the historical narration of the incident itself by introducing popular heritage into the context. Husseini theater and adding experiences passed down to generations within Husseini theatre.
For his part, the Dean of the College suggested holding innovative artistic activities within this approach
