I feel sorry for all of you attacking Islam. It must be terrible to have no faith in your hearts, be damaged to an extent that you feel tough by saying terrible things about our religion. I really do pity you.
Alhamdlillah your words cannot cause any harm, only disgust, because our hearts bloom with love,faith and hope towards our religion. Being a shia muslim is a blessing from God . Oh and change it from happy ashuraa please because there is nothing happy about it

this photoes belong to a very little numbers of Shi’s that act against the majorities Fatva(order) of grate Islamic scholars(al-olama) that count it as forbiden(Haram).This is a pure propaganda against Shi’a.
hello dear freinds
IF YOU SEARCH IN GOOGLE “ASHURA” WORD YOU WILL SEE PHOTOS OF PEOPLE WITH BLOODY FACES. ofcoure these photos do not tell us truth obout islam.these people are from small group of muslims that do not know real islam.muslims are not allowed to hurt themselves or anybody by enything even by eating harmfull foods because body is a Gift from God.ashura is a day for muslims to think about Human values and Commemoration. imam hossein(Grandson of Prophet Muhammad who was very very honest,brave and kind man that gave all things of him life and himself for Resuscitating right way. him enemies killed even him baby who was only 6 month
Hello 107, muslim. IF YOU SEARCH IN GOOGLE “no true scotsman” words you might learn about the fallacy that your post veritably reeks of.
Search engines and critical examination are not the friends of religion, not that religion, including yours, should have any supporters to begin with.
Islam has nothing to do with what these people are doing to themselves.
Ashoura is the day when God saved Prophet Moses and his people from Pharaoh and his army. God ordered the sea to split when Moses stoke it with his rod. He and his people escaped while Pharaoh and his army drowned.
Muslims celebrate this day by fasting as Jews do to honor Prophet Moses.
Sam, read post 108. The comments in it apply to your post too. Google the fallacy that 108 describes. Read about it and learn. Rinse and repeat.
Eighteen Injured in Mosque Shootout over Who Would Lead Prayer
Associated Press–A shootout in a mosque in south-western Pakistan, caused by a dispute over who should lead prayers on one of Islam’s most important holidays, has left 18 people injured, police said today.
Followers of the two rival religious leaders pulled out weapons and began shooting after arguing over which one should start Eid al-Adha prayers at a small mosque in the Khuzdar district of Baluchistan province, Javed Ahmed, a police official, said.
Khuzdar is about 550 miles south-west of Islamabad. Many of the region’s ethnic Pashtuns carry rifles.
Pakistan began the religious holiday a day later than many other countries because of local authorities’ interpretation of when the new moon was sighted.
Many mosques have increased security measures to guard against attacks by the Taliban and other Islamist extremists.
Earlier this month, at least 70 people died when a suicide bomber targeted a mosque frequented by anti-Taliban elders and a grenade exploded at another place of worship in Pakistan’s north-west
The UN refugee agency says thousands of Iraqi Christians are fleeing from central provinces of the country.
They are seeking refuge in the relatively safe Kurdish-controlled region in the north.
The UN High Commission for Refugees said about 1,000 families have left Baghdad and Mosul province since an attack on a church left 68 people dead.
It said the flight of Christians to other parts of Iraq and abroad has become “a slow but steady exodus”.
Bombings in Iraq targeted Shi’ite pilgrims, killing two as they walked to holy sites. In Pakistan, 16 people were wounded, two critically, when an assailant threw an explosive device at a Shi’ite procession.
Two suicide bombings Wednesday blamed on a radical Sunni group killed at least 39 people at a ceremony marking Ashoura near a Shi’ite mosque in southeastern Iran. The group — Jundallah, or Soldiers of God — claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement posted on its website.
In Iraq, bombings in Baghdad and a small town to the north killed two pilgrims and wounded nine who were headed to ceremonies in Karbala, home of Imam Hussein’s shrine.
Ashraf Thabet, 45, is charged with defaming a revealed religion, Article 98f of the Egyptian Penal Code. The charges stem from Thabet’s six-year search for spiritual meaning that eventually led him to become a Christian. During his search, he shared his doubts about Islam and told others what he was learning about Jesus Christ.
Local religious authorities, incensed at Thabet’s ideas, notified Egypt’s State Security Intelligence service (SSI), which arrested and charged him with defamation.
Hi I am an Iranian because pictures no like this it puts Google images for the people without feeling in our no religion is no say religion told us that (wounding) no can really sorry for being Iranian, I wish I was not Muslim I personally like this ever in Pictures Iran did not live to my country people who behave like children sorry so sorry
10. Did I mention this game had bad spawning system?
I am more annoyed right now with the atheists who are laughing at the sheit cutting themselves for a holiday, than the sheit’s themselves. Which is more spiteful the man who is cutting a screaming child? Or the man who is laughing his ass off while watching the screaming child bleed? They seem to see this as a gag. (pff! Those silly religious folk what will they think of next!)There’s a story of a man in South American who was so sick he had to be pushed in a wheel barrow to a christian church because he was so desperate for help. A week after he got better, he told the Americans. “I feel sorry for you. You go through your life with no hardship and because of this you never truly know God.” Some argue that religious documents are useless because they’re thousands of years old and would be without merit and have no place in modern society. But what they don’t realize, is that those old papers are just as well understood as Shakespeare’s work. This is because today we might not relate to a man who stabs a king. But we relate to happiness, anguish, and despair and the emotions that everyone has felt. Humans seem to think as time goes on that the people of the older generation’s views and philosophy’s of life were so different and unlike us we couldn’t possibly relate. You may not ever be tempted to steel your neighbors donkey, but you’ve delt with wives or husbands who cheat, thievery, murder, and much more just as the people of old. [Let me put this simply: You wouldn't go to a Monk to remove your appendix and you wouldn't go to a surgeon to exercise a demon.] There’s physical and then there’s emotional well being. You’ve felt the same emotions they’ve felt you’ve dreamed the same dreams. You may think your the first to experience something. But the truth is your and old idea or emotion with a new face.
“Kindle”, LMAO at your ludicrous post.
People who do stupid things in the guise of their religions deserve to be laughed at publicly and loudly.
And Kindle, stop coveting my ass.
From Staring at the View blog: ” if you are an intelligent young 17 year old Muslim girl, ask yourself if you could imagine yourself falling in love with the 62 year old man who had exiled your family from their home, beheaded your father and brother on the same day, tortured and beheaded your husband, and then raped you that night? Then ask yourself how you could possibly believe that about Muhammad’s wife Safiya.”
I pray your whole race vanishes. Fucking lunatics.
Yeah, we know all that prayer has made happen. Not. Ever.

God bless persia
Who cares about your ridiculous muslim feuds? We just want all of you to leave the West alone. Stay in your crapistans and keep your insanity to yourselves.
i’m a muslim…i should say none of us believe this terrible scene…years ago some of shia(maybe 1% of them)did this and after that all the clericals forbidden this job … and all the foreign countries rapidly announced that muslims are brutal… actually as i said a little group of muslims did this…
and now i honor that i’m a SHIA…in fact islam is the religion of peace but unfortunately other countries just focus at bad things…
Guess not,re peace. Learn the truth about the quran here:
http://skepticsannotatedbible.com/quran/
24/7 365 days a year you can learn why islam is utter nonsense. You can also see the undeniable errors of the quran exposed.
Most of you people that say things like this on here are just uneducated, stupid, racist FOOLS!
1. This picture, IF it truly is of a man attempting to cut the child’s head, then it is WRONG. BUT, as one of my fellow Shia’s had stated above, this could be easily misunderstood. It may possibly be of a man shaving his child’s head. Honestly though, the truth behind this image cannot be said, as nobody has any proof.
2. All of you fools that just sit on the net and criticize people and people’s beliefs, need to get a life! Everybody has a right to believe in whatever they please. It’s their choice. You have no right to be criticizing. If you honestly have nothing nice to say, or nothing educational, then please, keep your foolish comments to yourselves.
3. Those of you who have said plenty about Shia Muslims, and what they believe, please, get off your backsides, get onto this amazing invention called the INTERNET, and learn a thing or two. Educate yourself BEFORE you say anything about any religion. There are plenty of websites, it’s just a matter of finding some decent ones that have been actually created by a Shia Muslim.
But if you do not wish to believe what is written on here then use this other amazing invention called a TELEVISION. There is a Shia Channel, in english. Watch it, listen to what they say. It doesn’t require much brain power to just listen. Maybe then will you understand something. If even after all of that you still do not understand, then it is just better you stay away from the religion, and it’s followers.
The channel is called Ahlulbayt TV, channel 842 on Sky. If you don’t have the channel then you can watch live online.
http://ahlulbayt.tv/index.php/live
4. You “Shia’s” on here that have said you do not do mourn the death of Imam Hussain (a.s) and his family, then you are not true Shia. You do not follow the Ahlulbayt. If the story of Kerbala does not make any person cry, you are not even worthy of listening to it. Us Shia’s do Matam(beat our chests), we do it because we feel the pain that our Imam’s family felt at the time of this battle. Us Shia’s do Zanjeer(using blades), we do it because we wish to shed our blood as our Imam and his family did on that day of Ashura.
Generally it is not allowed for one to harm oneself or others, but in the case of Muharram, the battle of Kerbala, on the day of Ashura, it is permitted for us to feel the pain they felt. If any of you honestly do not know the story of Ashura, then look it up. Or better yet, why not listen to it. There will be english lectures, also on the same TV channel, Ahlulbayt. The month of Muharram is near. On the eve of the 27th of November, you will be able to watch these lectures. And on every night from that night for the next month.
5. If you have not already gathered by my earlier comments, Ashura is a day of mourning, sadness…NOT HAPPY!!!
6. To all of the Sunni’s on here, stop and think about how innapropriate your comments are. Sunni’s AND Shia’s are both still MUSLIM. We both still follow ISLAM. If you are going to just take the sides of these infidels, and criticize a fellow Muslim, then you are not worthy of calling yourself Muslim. Think about what Islam teaches about others, about how you treat others, about how you respect other’s beliefs, and religions.
Safe.
“You have no right to be criticizing.” Actually, here in the USA we do have that right, and nothing can allowed to abridge it.
“If you honestly have nothing nice to say, or nothing educational, then please, keep your foolish comments to yourselves.” No, it is on you to not read them – your feelings have nothing to do with my right to criticize islam.
Racists? What race is islam?
I am Iranian and commenting from the heart of ISLAMIC republic.
Behold people of the world, that is our religioun SHIT or as they call it Shi’it. That Iranian guy is correct that this blood deed doesn’t happen so much in Iran, but ISLAMIC guys do many other stupid things in Ashura. The clergy are actually happy about all of them including this. Some clergies still permit that to their monkey (MOGHALED) followers. Even the big brothers that have abandoned it don’t say that it is inherently bad, they say: don’t do this because it creates a bad image of SH’iT among people of the world. They actually think that you people of the world should grow to understand these, then all of us (after converting to ISLAM and SHIT) do this to ourselves and children! Many of them think that same way about their stupid things.
This is my user name in Persian, ?????. And it is not my real name, nor I can use Internet normally to comment otherwise ISLAM will behead me according to their rules (heresy). I am using proxies and several turns and twists to be able to make a view on internet.
No Islamic basis. It’s just a cultural practice, don’t mix it with religion. If you’re actually interested in finding about the principles Imam Hussain (as) stood for on the day of Ashura, on the plains of Karbala, and to appreciate the moral excellence of the legacy he has left behind to be commemorated 1300 years later, then give this a watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMI8eHKTFc8
Bullshit, Hassan. Others interpret Islam as supporting Ashura, so if your interpretation differs from theirs, then ask yourself why your Allah can’t get his message out more reliably. There’s a damn good reason for that, and the reason is that Allah doesn’t exist.
And like Janie said, Allah-walla-walla-shebang-bongo-boingo to you, girlie. Let’s add a refrain now and sing along, ya’ll. Here we go around again,
Allah-walla-walla-shebang-bongo-boingo-shebang, Allah-walla-walla-shebang-bongo-boingo.
Allah-walla-walla-shebang-bongo-boingo, Allah-walla-walla-shebang-bongo-boingo.
Allah-walla-walla-shebang-bongo-boingo, Allah-walla-walla-shebang-bongo-boingo.
