INDIA-KASHMIR-ISLAM-SHIITE
A Kashmiri Shiite Muslim performs a ritual of self-flagellation with knives during a religious procession in downtown Srinagar on November 4, 2014. Ashura mourns the death of Imam Hussein, a grandson of the Prophet Mohammed, who was killed by armies of the Yazid near Karbala in 680 AD. Shiites show their grief and sorrow by inflicting wounds on their own bodies with sharp metal tied to chains to depict the sufferings of the martyrs. AFP PHOTO/Tauseef MUSTAFA
