The mourning days of Imam Hussein (AS)

Every year, in the month of Muharram, mourners beat their chests, chant soul-stirring elegies with heavy hearts, and shed tears over the tragic martyrdom of Imam Hussain (AS), his family and loyal companions.

Filled with great sorrow, the mourners, most dressed in black, pour into streets in small and big groups to not only mourn the greatest tragedy but also to renew and reaffirm their pledge of allegiance to the great Imam.

This is a familiar scene in all countries across the world in the month of Muharram, including Iran.

However, there are cultural features of these Muharram commemorations that differ from country to country. In Iran, some cultural customs and traditions of mourning have a long history. Let us look at some of them.
