HOLY KARBALA, Iraq: Bani Assad tribe commemorated the ceremony of burial of Al-Imam Al-Hussein (p) and his near and dear ones on 13th of Moharram by holding Husseini procession.

A number of Husseini groups contributed in the commemoration. Women led the procession in memory of Al-Assadiah women’s high stance on 3rd day after the martyrdom of Al-Imam Al-Hussein (p).

It is not a secret that Bani Assad men hesitated in burial of Al-Imam Al-Hussein (p) because of fear of Yazidi forces, but it were their women who showed their intention to go for burial of the Imam (p) putting aside consequences which they were about to face on burial from Yazidi forces, which encouraged men and then they buried the holy corpse of the imam (p) and his dear and near ones.

The commemoration continued for hours and ended at the holy mausoleums of Al-Imam Al-Hussein (p) and his brother Al-Abbas (p).
