The torch-carrying ceremony is held every year on the 8th, 9th, and 10th nights of Muharram by Najafis and Karbalais living in Tehran in the neighborhood of Iraqis living in the capital, located in Dowlat Abad. The torches carried in this ceremony symbolize the torches that set fire to the tent of Aba Abdullah al-Hussein, and the extensive playing of drums also reminds us of the playing of drums during the attack of Yazid and Ibn Ziyad's army on the tent of Ahl al-Husayn. It is the house of Imam Hussain and the people of the shrine to prevent the voices of fear, screams, and screams of women and children from being heard by playing the drums loudly. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #Tehran #Iran #walkingtour --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Muharram mourning is mourning and commemoration that is done on the occasion of the killing of Hussain bin Ali and a group of her companions that happened in Karbala in 61 AH.
