On the 7th day of Moharram, water supply was cut off the Imam's camp including men, women, children and the torment of thirst and hunger began.

At 10th day of Moharram known as Ashura (Ashoora), Yezid ordered his army to march towards him. Imam Husain gathered his followers and told them that God (Allah) has permitted us to be in a holy war on this day and God will reward us for our Martyrdom. He prepared his followers for death and bridging from this world to the other world.

After Imam Husain followers gave their lives one by one, he brought his six month old baby son Ali Asghar, offering him to his enemy and requesting for some water for the baby who was dying of thirst. Instead of water, poison was given to the baby which killed him.

At last, Imam Husain came to the field and was murdered. His head was cut off and raised on a lance.The head of Holy Imam began praising God and saying "Allaho Akbar' meaning "All glory be to God who is the greatest!"

Muslims mourn during this period in memory of Imam Husain. People wear black during these times.
