The practices mentioned hereunder are abstained from by ignorant people in commemoration of the death of Sayyidina Husain (Radhiyallahu anhu). There is no basis in the Shariah for such ‘mourning’ centuries after the passing away of a person.

  1. Not eating paan in the month of Muharram.
  2. Refraining from applying mehndi (henna) and tooth-colouring powder.
  3. Staying away from one’s husband.
  4. Refraining from wearing red clothes.
