Karbala is one of the holiest cities in Shia Islam, site of the shrine of Imam Husayn, grandson of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), who was martyred there in the year 680 CE — an event commemorated annually during Ashura by Shia Muslims worldwide. The shrine complex, along with the nearby shrine of Abbas ibn Ali, draws millions of pilgrims each year, making Karbala one of the most visited pilgrimage cities in the Islamic world, with a vast infrastructure of mosques, husayniyas and guesthouses built to serve visitors.
