An Afghan refugee woman is praying while standing next to a tent that is set up as a symbol of the tent of Imam Hussein during a religious festival to commemorate Ashura in the Dolatabad neighborhood in southern Tehran, Iran, on July 16, 2024. Ashura is a significant and sacred day in the Shi'ite calendar, marking the anniversary of the martyrdom of Imam Hussein, the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad, who was killed in the 7th century Battle of Karbala.
