Tens of thousands of Ahl al-Baytlovers have participated in a Husseini procession marking Arbaeen.

Organizers of one of Britain’s biggest Shiite Muslim events have urged attendees to leave political banners at home as part of efforts to address misconceptions about the procession.

Thousands of people are marched through central London to mark Arbaeen, which is considered one of the most important days in the Shiite calendar.

Though the mourners were from different origins, they united in the Husseini procession under the slogan of ‘Imam Hussein Unites Us’
