Muharram Observance - Iraq
Shia Muslims take part in a religious gathering at Altun Mosque in Erbil, the Kurdish region in Iraq, on June 27, 2025, marking the first night of Muharram, the first month of the Islamic calendar. Worshippers commemorated the martyrdom of Imam Hussein, the grandson of Prophet Muhammad, with zikr, rhythmic chest-beating, and religious hymns. The mourning rituals will continue over the next ten days, culminating in Ashura. Photo by Omar Karim/Middle East Images/ABACAPRESS.COM
