Ashura in Karbala

Millions of people gather every year in Karbala to visit the shrine of Imam Hussein (AS), the grand son of the Holy Prophet of Islam. On Arba'een more than 16 million people visited the shrine of the martyr of Karbala, 4 to 5 times more than the number of pilgrims visiting Kaba on Hajj. Why? Because the holy prophet said: "Hussein is from me and I am from Hussein." Because Hussein sacrificed everything, even his life, in the way of Allah, Lord of Kaba.
