QSM

abbreviation for

For the first six days, nothing else takes place, but on the seventh day the 'Alam-i-Qsm is taken out in public procession.

As the standard which represents Qsm is supposed to be a martyr, it is then laid down, covered over, and treated as a corpse.

The event is now commemorated by the bearing of Qsm's standard in procession.
