Shiite Moslems Finally Free to Flagellate
Violence is used in celebration just as it is used in most aspects of the Islamic Culture. For almost 30 years, the Shiite minority in Iraq were prohibited by the Sunni regime of Saddam Hussein from performing some traditional Shia Rituals. One of these rituals is the ceremonial self-flagellation during the “Day of Ashura,” which commemorates when the grandson of Mohommad, Hussein, foolishly rode to his doom in the battle of Karbala.
Now that the US has deposed Saddam, Shiites are free to celebrate again. Christians and Jews celebrate their holy days without needing a blood transfusion. Not the Moslems- they cut themselves and beat themselves with clubs to remind them that they are bound to a religion by BLOOD. Behold a celebration by followers of the Religion of Peace.
From the Stars and Stripes Here:
UMM QASR, Iraq The chanting began well after dark and grew gradually. Then under the glow of Umm Qasr’s newly restored streetlights, the men came into sight dancing down the dusty street, leaping and striking themselves on the back and forehead with sticks.
“We will never forget Hussein,” the men chanted.
They had come to praise not Saddam Hussein but another Hussein whose name had not been celebrated in such a fashion for decades.
“This is the first day of Shiite freedom,” said Ali, one of several awed townspeople gathered on the dark roadside to watch the unusual ritual. “This is the first time anyone is confident enough to do this.”
For the first time in what residents said was nearly 30 years, the majority Shiite Muslims of southern Iraq commemorated Ashura in Umm Qasr. The Shiite self-flagellation ritual commemorates the killing in A.D. 680 of Hussein, a grandson of the Prophet Muhammad and a man venerated as a martyr.
Practice of the religious ritual, long discouraged by Saddam’s minority Sunni regime, has been punishable by death, residents said.
Why would anyone want to be a member of a religion that required you to enact the final scene in the movie Carrie?

Of course I know why you do it. Its still stupid and crazy, but par for the course for a religion that is all about blood, animal sacrifice and death.
L’islam est innocent de tous ces rites et ne s’étendent pas à ces voir avec l’islam
L’Islam est venu pour sauver les âmes à ne pas torturer son
Il a également demandé de ne pas faire d’auto Maiwve
Vraiment faut chercher les vrais enseignements de l’Islam
Et ces revendications, mais un créateur de la religion islamique et de faire ce que l’exclusion
Comme c’est le cas pour le reste des religions
Même dans le christianisme revendications Tauaiv il de la religion chrétienne, mais il a été inventé pour eux-mêmes de nouveaux rituels ne sont pas sous le règne de notre Seigneur Jésus, paix soit sur lui ne l’a pas laissé
Et la même chose pour les juifs
Je souhaite Pa, vous savez juste avant l’Islam Thajmoh pas juger le créateur et les communautés au-delà de l’Islam
Vous mes assurances de respect et d’appréciation
Musulmans
Islam is innocent of all these rites and do not extend those to do with Islam
Islam came to save souls not to torture her
He also asked not to do self Maiwve
Really must look for the true teachings of Islam
And these claims, but a creator of the Islamic religion and do what the exclusion
As is the case for the rest of religions
Even in Christianity there Tauaiv claims of the Christian religion, but it was invented for themselves new rituals were not in the reign of our Lord Jesus, peace be upon him did not let it
And the same thing for the Jewish
I wish Pa, you know right before Islam Thajmoh not judge the creator and communities beyond the pale of Islam
You my assurances of respect and appreciation
Muslim

LOL whut?
This is absolutely wrong
as far as this matter concern no more on is able to talk about it. And all the people against it is like my dog
You can not condemn Islam because Islam is a religion of god, like Christianity.
Islamic scholars, especially the Shia have been forbidden Daggers
Criminals who in Iraq Afghanistan Pakistan Palestine and other oppressed nations to war and terrorism do not Muslims (both Sunni and Shia) that Pyamshan for world peace and prosperity and security that these are from the Quran and Prophet and the leaders self taught
Sunnis and Shiites believe that Imam Hussain peace be upon him in the way of freedom and away from humiliation and tyranny will rise, although with a few friends but the world will hear the message that death is better than living in government oppression and ruthless ruler.
does any body here atleast realise that beating urself is not Islam. Islam allow 3 days of mourning after any closest person’s death, and nobody should go on in this extreme no matter the circumstances of death/shahadah. Hussain raziAllah Tallah did suffer a lot but it was all in Deen’s path and Inshallah will be granter a lovely place in Jannah.
This is craziness in name of Islam and should be stopped
Also, it attracts vampires.
you are in the Stupid Clearly!!
i swear this is wrong!
islam is completest religion of god,
you’ll see that also…
when you are not able to do nothing,you’ll see that islam is a save ship!
and i swear that happend at end
ap log muslim banjoa khud ba khud allah aplog ko maaf kardega amin summa amin
