Shiite Muslims Mark Ashura In Pireaus, Greece
Shiite Muslims are flagellating themselves during a religious procession to mark Ashura in Pireaus, Greece, on July 17, 2024. The mourning of Muharram is a set of rituals in remembrance of the seventh-century martyrdom of Prophet Mohammad's grandson Imam Hussain, who is killed in the battle of Karbala in modern-day Iraq, in 680 AD.
