Ashura, the 10th of the Islamic month of Muharram, was commemorated in Muslims of the Americas village of Holy Islamberg in upstate New York. Opening up with recitations of peace and blessings upon the Beloved Holy Last Messenger, Muhammad (peace be upon him and his family), along with the sweet smell of incense and Islamic perfumes, the tone was set for the evening where lovers, young and old, of the noble and blessed grandson and legacy of Islam, Hazrat Imam Hussein, joined together.
