Among the ceremonies and traditions that are performed in this province, we can refer to the anniversary celebrating the arrival of Fatima Masoumeh from Saveh to Qom. Back then, people along with Musa ibn Khazraj, one of the elders of Qom who was holding Fatima Masoumeh’s camel went to the entrance of the city to greet Fatima Masoumeh. Every year, the people of Qom and those working in Fatemeh Masoumeh shrine celebrate this day by symbolically greeting her on this day. Laleh gardani (tulip showing) ceremony or candle-lighting ceremony in Fatemeh Masoumeh shrine is another traditional ceremony performed by the staff of the shrine. Sar derakhti ceremonies are held in early spring in villages in the south of the province to protect gardens from the cold.

The cow is sacrificed in Imam Zadeh or a holy place and its meat is cooked and distributed among people.

If they had money with them, they would tie it in the corner of Charghad.
