The Imam Ali Religious Arts Museum is the venue for Ashura illustration artworks by 20 illustration artists. The show runs until 20 October. In the Shia tradition, Ashura marks the climax of the Remembrance of Muharram, and commemorates the death of Imam Hussein (AS), the grandson of the prophet of Islam, Muhammad (S) at the Battle of Karbala on 10 Muharram in the year 61 AH (October 10, 680 CE).
