Shi'ites Mourn Imam Ali

Marble Arch, London. Sunday 21 Sept, 2008



 
 
  The men start to pound their chests as a symbol of mourning for Ali
 
  And then the procession starts, with hands on hearts signifying mourning
 
 
 
  With more beating of breasts
 
 
 
      
     


 

 

burning coals held in a pan in front of the coffin
