Takfiri Terrorist Attacks
With the beginning of the crisis in Syria and increasing actions of Takfiri terrorist groups in this country after 2012, the shrine of Lady Zaynab (a) was many times hit by these groups' mortar and suicide attacks. Terrorist attacks from 2012 to 2015-6 led to damages to some parts of the shrine including the dome, courtyard, and main gates of the shrine. Some of these attacks happened in the surroundings of the shrine which led to the martyrdom of some visitors and residents around the shrine.

After the great distribution of Takfiri terrorists in Syria and taking different regions of the country, many pilgrimage sites in regions under their control were demolished by their agents. Meanwhile, the shrine of Lady Zaynab (a) was several times hit by Takfiri terrorists' mortar and suicide attacks. Takfiri terrorists several times advanced near the shrine of Lady Zaynab (a), but they moved back after encountering the resistance of Shi'a and residents of the region.
Following Takfiri terrorists' threat to demolish the shrines of the Ahl al-Bayt (a) and especially the shrine of Lady Zaynab (a), many groups of Shi'a from other countries, especially Iran, Iraq, Lebanon and Afghanistan went to Syria to defend the shrines of the Ahl al-Bayt (a) and pilgrimage sites. Also, different groups from Iran went to Syria to defend the shrine, among which there were military counselors as well.
Expansion and Reconstruction
According to reports, the shrine of Lady Zaynab (a) was first expanded and reconstructed in 768/1366-7 by Sayyid Husayn b. Musa Musawi Husayni, a noble figure in Damascus and the forefather of Al Murtada in Syria.
In 1302/1884-5, the shrine was rebuilt and expanded by Sultan 'Abd al-'Aziz Khan 'Uthmani and the support of merchants.
In 1354/1935-6, Sayyids of Al Nizam reconstructed the shrine of Lady Zaynab (a) and for the comfort of its visitors, expanded it.

Expansion of the shrine in 1370/1950-1 was made by Allama al-Sayyid Muhsin al-Amin and with the support of merchants. At that time, the old building was destroyed and the new building was made so that the courtyard and the interior areas could be expanded.
The expansion of the Shrine of Lady Zaynab continued in the fifteenth/twenty-first century by the construction of the Musalla (Prayer Hall) of Zaynabiyya. It was made by Sayyid Ahmad Fihri Zanjani, the representative of Iran's Supreme Leader. After building Musalla in the shrine, performing congregational prayer, reciting Kumayl Supplication and performing the Friday prayer are made there. Recently, a new courtyard has also been built in the north of the shrine.
Reconstruction of the shrine after the attacks of Takfiri terrorist groups: following the increase of Takfiri terrorist groups' mortar and suicide attacks to the shrine of Lady Zaynab (a), some parts of the dome, courtyards and the gates were damaged. Therefore, the committee for the reconstruction of Great Shrines considers the plan of repairing and reconstructing the dome and the gates of the shrine which had more damages. Thus, the damaged spots were repaired using the gold donated by the people of Khuzestan province.
