To commemorate the martyrdom of Hazrat Imam Hussain, mourners took out mourning procession, Ashura, on October 12, 2016 in Dhaka, Bangladesh. For Shi'a Muslims, Ashura marks the climax of the Remembrance of Muharram and commemorates the death of Husayn ibn Ali, the grandson of Muhammad at the Battle of Karbala. In Sunni Islam, Ashura marks the day that Moses and his followers (The children of Israel) were saved from Pharaoh by God by creating a path in the Red Sea. (Photo by Azam Husain/Barcroft Images)
