Muslims Mark Ashura In Delhi

NEW DELHI, INDIA - NOVEMBER 25: Shiite boys strike themselves with sharpened blades attached to chains as part of a self-flagellation ritual during a religious procession marking Ashura on November 25, 2012 in New Delhi, India. The religious festival of Ashura, which involves a ten-day mourning period starting with the first day of Muharram on the Islamic calendar, commemorates and mourns the seventh-century martyrdom of Prophet Muhammad's grandson Imam Hussein in the battle of Karbala.
