Title:
Ashura Day in Khomeinishahr, Iran
Amongst Muslim shiites, Ashura commemrates the detah of Husayn, son of Ali and grandson of the Prophet Mohammad. It is a period of expressions of remorse and of major pilgrimages to Kerbala, where the tragedy took place in 680 AD. Most people dress in black, pay respect to dead relatives in the cemeteries and passion plays, called ta'ziyah, take place in public (Iran and Pakistan have the most elaborate plays over 3 days with era costumes and hundreds of lay actors).
