Candle-Lighting To Mark Ashura In Tehran
People light candles during a ceremony marking the anniversary of the martyrdom of Imam Hussein outside a shrine in northern Tehran, Iran, on June 25, 2026. The event takes place at the end of Ashura, a significant day in the Shi'ite calendar commemorating the martyrdom of Imam Hussein, the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad, who was killed in the 7th century Battle of Karbala. This occurs following a ceasefire between Iran and a U.S.-Israeli coalition. (Photo by Morteza Nikoubazl/NurPhoto)
