The extent of people's willingness to take part in the Arbaeen walking ceremony
The Arbaeen walk, especially over the past decade, has created a particular fervor among the people of Iran. As Hosseini Arbaeen approaches, in addition to those who set out on the Arbaeen walk, a large number of people, despite the willingness they have, cannot for various reasons take part in this ceremony. In this situation the question arises: how great is people's willingness to take part in the Arbaeen walking ceremony?
On the basis of the fourth wave of the Survey of Iranians' Values and Attitudes, in which respondents were asked, "If the conditions are in place, to what extent would you be willing to take part in the Arbaeen walking ceremony?" 58 percent of respondents said that if the conditions are in place, they are to a large extent willing to take part in the Arbaeen walking ceremony. 12.7 percent have little willingness and 25.8 percent of people have no willingness at all to take part in the Arbaeen walking ceremony.
The data of the Survey of Iranians' Values and Attitudes (fourth wave) were obtained by a survey method and on the basis of in-person interviews with 15,787 people aged 15 and older residing in the country's 31 provinces who were selected at random. The data of this survey were collected in Aban (October–November) 1402 (2023/24).
