Muharram Observance - Iraq

Shia Muslims gather for mourning rituals between the two holy shrines of Imam Hussein and al-Abbas in Karbala, Iraq on June 28, 2025, marking the second night of Muharram, the first month of the Islamic calendar. Shia 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 first ten days of Muharram, culminating in Ashura. Photo Samer Alhusseini/Middle East Images/ABACAPRESS.COM
