📜 What Is Muharram & Ashura?
Muharram marks the first month of the Islamic calendar; its 10th day, Ashura, commemorates Imam Hussain’s martyrdom (680 CE). For Shia Muslims—and many Sunnis—it is a period of mourning, reflection, and renewed commitment to social justice, mercy, and truth. Today, processions from Karbala to Leicester echo Hussain’s timeless call: “Never submit to oppression.”
