Qatligāh, or the Sacrifice Pit, is where [[Imam al-Husayn b. Ali (a)|Imam al-Husayn (a)]] attained [[martyrdom]]. It was within these grounds that Imam al-Husayn's head was severed from his body, a brutal act by [[Shimr b. Dhi l-Jawshan]] or [[Sinan b. Anas al-Nakha'i]]. Qatligah was situated at a lower elevation than other parts of the [[Karbala]] battlefield, thus earning its name as the pit of sacrifice or murder.

[[File:تابلوی عرش بر زمین.png|250px|thumbnail|right|The Painting “The Throne on the Earth” by [[Mahmoud Farshchian]].]]
The artwork titled "The Throne on the Earth" by [[Mahmoud Farshchian]] depicts the poignant moment of [[Lady Zaynab (a)]] bidding farewell to the body of [[Imam al-Husayn b. Ali (a)|Imam al-Husayn (a)]] within the pit of Qatligah. Created in the miniature style, the painting measures 123*80 cm and was completed in 1396/2017. It was subsequently donated to the museum of Astan Quds Razavi ([[Imam al-Rida]]'s shrine). Notably, the painting focuses on Imam al-Husayn's legs, while his body is subtly implied to be concealed behind a mound of soil. At the center of the artwork, a bloodstained flag is depicted as fallen on the ground, while [[angels]] join Lady Zaynab (a) in mourning.
