That’s why Moharram is celebrated
Moharram is celebrated in the memory of Prophet Muhammad’s grandson Hazrat Imam Hussain. During this period, there is an atmosphere of grief in the Muslim community for 10 days. For this, all the men and women of the Shia community wear black clothes and attend the majlis of grief in homes, mosques and Imambaras. Moharram is celebrated by remembering the martyrs of Karbala and mourning them. During this, the battle of Karbala, the martyrdom of Hazrat Imam Hussain and his 72 companions is remembered.
