EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Ali Hashisho, Muslim Shiite women are seen marching in a re-enactment of the historic battle of Kerbala during a mourning process. The photograph was taken one day before Shiites mark the solemn occasion of Ashura in Nabatiyeh, Lebanon on October 11,2016. The photo showcases a group of unrecognizable women who are chained to each other as they march forward. Dressed in black burqas and traditional attire, their silhouettes create an air of mystery and reverence. The creative use of fabric adds depth to the composition, emphasizing their faith and commitment. This image highlights the devotion and resilience displayed by these women as they mourn and commemorate an important event in Islamic history. Their covered bodies symbolize both modesty and religious observance while also serving as a reminder of the sacrifices made during this significant battle. The procession itself is a testament to the strong sense of community within Islam, with individuals coming together to honor their shared beliefs. Despite being hidden behind veils, these women's presence is felt through their unified steps towards remembrance. Ali Hashisho's photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a visual representation of faith, tradition, and cultural heritage that continues to shape communities around the world today.
