The 10th of Muharram, the Day of Ashura commemorates the martyrdom of Imam Hussein (AS) – the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) – in the Battle of Karbala.
Traditions also narrate that is when Prophet Musa (PBUH) led the Israelites across the ocean to safety from Pharaoh.
More than 1400 years since the brutal killing of Imam Hussein, a turning point in Islamic history, his message of resistance and sacrifice for justice reverberates.
