Far-right Hindu protesters smash Muslim graves | AJ #shorts
The number of "pilgrims" walking from different parts of #Iran towards #Karbala in #Iraq has passed 3.8 million people.
The number of people killed during this unbelievable level of madness has passed 50 and yesterday's temperature of Karbala was 48°C
The number keeps growing as those who take busses and planes are not included in this.

The ultimate mass hysteria going on in iran!
For some strange reason, this year "Arbaeen" seems to be a much bigger event than previous years.
More than 100 thousands people from Iran are taking themselves by train, bus, car and by foot towards "Karbala" in Iraq.
The unbelievable show of madness in temperatures between 42 and 47°C, men women and children are walking towards a place where 3rd imam of Shia. The grandson of Muslim prophet and 71 members of his family and followers were killed by a significantly larger army of Muslim khaliphat (that later became the Sunni sect of Islam).
It's just sad and upsetting to see this level of madness in 2023 of people who can barely afford their daily living, spending multiple times their annual income to be part of this mass hysteria pilgrimage.
Many have already "martyred" during this holy pilgrimage and many more will do in coming days.

Religious stupidity has no limit!
Arbain (40th in Arabic) is one of the major events in Sia Islam.
Arbaeen (Arabic: الأربعين, romanized: al-Arba‘īn, lit. 'fortieth'), Chehellom (Persian: چهلم, "the fortieth day") is a Shia religious observance that occurs forty days after the Day of Ashura. It commemorates the martyrdom of Al-Husayn ibn Ali, the grandson of Muhammad, who was martyred on the 10th day of the month of Muharram. Imam Hussain ibn Ali and 71 of his companions were martyred by Ubayd Allah ibn Ziyad's army under the governance of Yazid I in the Battle of Karbala in 61 AH (680 CE).
The lunacy of religious fanatics and even ordinary Shia muslims become a show of madness, self mutilation and self harm in "respect" to the 4th imam of Shia and the son of prophet Muhammad who died (supposedly) with 72 of his supporters in the city of Karbala by the forces of Sunni leadership of Islamic Caliphate who saw themselves as legitimate leaders of the Muslim world and The Shia as the Persian influenced infidels who wanted to put royalty I to Islam in the name of blood based leadership of Shia Imamas.
Ever since I was a kid. I had a love, hate relationship with these events, love because it was an excellent moment to run around and get free food, candy, rose water juice and lemonade while watching the adults hit themselves bloody and cry like toddlers for a man who died over 1300 years ago. A man who probably hated Iran and Iranians as much as the rest of those barbarian Arab invaders and wouldn't have hesitated to slaughter Iranians ISIS style in the name of spreading their religion of peace.
This year, over 600k Iranians have signed up to visit Karbala, with over 100k bellow the age of 18. Each of them going to spend a significant amount of money for travel and food among other things while millions in Iran living bellow the line of poverty, young boys and girls live on the streets, being physically and sexually abused by older men (many of them true believers) and drug addiction is at astronomical level in the country.
On top of everything, Iran is seeing a new form of desperation, dumping the older family members, the sick and mentally ill in the parks, under bridges and in some cases even murder. Something that was unheard of (or extremely rare) in the days before the revolution that promised us to create a classless and just Islamic government where fuel, electricity and rent would be free and each citizen would receive a portion of the sale of oil and natural gas.
Instead over 8 million Iranians are in exile, some 30 millions can't afford 3xneala a day and 1000a commit suicide every month where they no longer can live under such conditions and even worse, the number of murder suicide has increased to a level that the IRI media is no longer reporting them.

Saudi authorities have executed three young men from the Shia-populated Qatif region over charges of involvement in sabotage activities, which critics say are part of a crackdown to silence political dissent.
The Saudi Ministry of Interior alleged in a statement on Monday that the death sentences were carried out against Hassan bin Issa Al Muhanna, Haider bin Hassan Muwais and Muhammad bin Ibrahim Muwais.
The ministry claimed that the Saudi nationals “had joined a foreign-based network in order to carry out acts of terror against the kingdom. They were found guilty of having received training in the use of firearms and making bombs, smuggling men wanted on security charges out of the country, bringing in ammunition and storing them for the purpose of disturbing internal security.”

Ramadan and the never ending discussion about what day it starts and what day it ends!
Most of the Muslim world, except Iran, Turkey and Iraq started the Ramadan today on Wednesday, but the other countries (as always) starting it tomorrow.
I could never understand the BS surrounding the "visibility" of the moon when scientifically, one can say exactly when the lunar "new month" has started or ended.
But, the people have to follow the decision by their religious leaders who needeto "see" the moon before starting #Ramadan or ending it.
