It is said that 72 stories are narrated in a picture-storytelling, which probably is connected to the fact that those accompanying [[Imam Husayn]] in [[Karbala]] were also 72. The subject of the narrated story concerns an old weaving woman of Neishabur and Mutawakkil, the ruling Abbasid Caliph. The old weaving woman from Neishabur (in the east of Iran) goes on pilgrimage to Karbala in Iraq to the grave of Imam Husayn. Mutawakkil-e Abbasi, who opposed to Imam Husayn, were ordered to his executors to throw the old woman into the Euphrates river. With prayers and the shouts of the old woman, Abbas who was one of Imam Husayn's followers rushes to her help. The old woman is saved and reaches her goal in pilgrimage and visits the shrine of Imam Husayn and Abass ibn Ali.[[File:Qasem daneshpajouh 7.jpg|thumb|]]
