Muharram Procession - Toronto
A Shiite Muslim man mourner participates in a Muharram procession in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, on July 16, 2024. Hundreds of Shiite Muslims took to the streets to commemorate the death of Imam Hussein, a grandson of Prophet Muhammad, slain along with 72 of his comrades in a battle in the seventh century. Shiite Muslims across the world commemorate his death annually during the Ashura processions, and mourners simulate self-flagellation and pound on their chests to the thump of a bass drum.
