💨 Abstract
The Sayyida Zeinab shrine in Syria is a significant site for Shiite Muslims, believed to house the tomb of the Prophet Muhammad's granddaughter. During Syria's civil war, it became a symbol of the intertwining of religion and politics, with Shiite fighters and Iran-backed groups defending it against Sunni extremists.
