Celebrations of the holy Muslim day of Ashura is continuing around the globe, with sacred self-flagellation rituals leaving worshippers covered in blood. The holiday is celebrated by Shiite Muslims, and mourns the death of Imam Hussein, the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad, on the battlefield in the 7th Century. The gory ceremonies, which sees males of all ages cut themselves across the scalp, or whip themselves with blades attached to chains, are meant to commemorate Imam Hussein's violent end. A man gashes the head of a fellow pilgrim with a knife as they commemorate Ashura in Najaf, Iraq. A man holds a baby during an Ashura cutting ceremony, which sees male Shiite Muslims self-flagellate to commemorate the death of Imam Hussein, the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad, on the battlefield.

Many of the worshippers wear white clothes, which are then coloured bright red by the blood streaming from head wounds and flagellation ceremonies. Ashura is celebrated on the tenth day of Muharram the first month in the Islamic lunar calendar. This year, Ashura begins in the evening of September 20 and ends at sundown on Friday September 21. Iraqi Shi'ite Muslims bleed after hitting their foreheads with swords and beating themselves during the religious festival of Ashura in Baghdad's Sadr City, Iraq. Men in white clothes cutting parts of their scalps off are monitored by medical staff dressed in black.

Isn't this similar to what Jesus went thru? I am not a Shia nor Sunni. But try to understand this. This ritual of self flagellation is somewhat similar to that of Mexican / Philipino Christians. When I try to verify online on it. I realised it is more of an emotional practice that takes one more closer to their beloved. There are this so much love of their beloved that they want to feel (taste) the pain that He went through. Not all Catholics engage in self flagellation, likewise only ~5% Shias engage in self flagellation. I condemn this act but we should not see as it is only partaning to Muslim only Even christain do

You see Fanatics ..... So, what would they have done to celebrate prophet Mohammed's death (SAW) ....... Now, if they could inflict this kind of pain and injuries on themselves, what wouldn't they do to another human being when there is conflict ? Until we all understand the concept of GOD, many people will be mentally enslaved by religion ...... while the essence of religion is meant to liberalise us all ![]() 2 Likes |
