Iran Press/ Europe: Ashura is the 10th day of Muharram. In 61 AH (October 10, 680 CE), Imam Hussain (AS) and his faithful companions were martyred in the battle against the army of then-time tyrant Yazid I, led by 'Umar b. Sa'd.
In addition to the Persian-Bosnian College, Fatima al-Zahra (SA) Hussainiya in Sarajevo also hosted the mourners of Ashura.
Ashura is significant for Shia due to what occurred in Karbala on this day.
