Iraqi Shiite men beat their chests as they take part in a mourning ritual, during the month of Muharram on the Islamic calendar, leading up to the day of Ashura, in Baghdad, Iraq during the night of August 14, 2021. The Shiite Muslim religious commemoration of Ashura, which includes a ten-day mourning period starting on the first day of Muharram, marks the seventh-century slaying of Prophet Mohammed's grandson Imam Hussein and his 72 loyal companions in Karbala.
