Blackburn Husseini procession attracts hundreds

By: Nabil Raza

BLACKBURN, Britain: Hundreds of Husayni mourners took to the streets of Blackburn to commemorate the supreme sacrifice of Imam Husayn and his 72 faithful companions in the name of Islam.

Marchers left Addison Street at 2pm on Sunday January 17 for the annual Husseini procession. They then walked along Preston New Road, Montague Street, Devonport Street and back to Addison Street.

The participants while chanting elegies beat their chests to express mourning at the pain Hussain and his companions had suffered.
