One of the pivotal events celebrated at the Mosque of Zayd is Ashura, commemorating the martyrdom of Imam Hussein, the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad. The mosque becomes a focal point for mourning rituals, characterized by recitations of elegies and communal gatherings that emphasize themes of sacrifice, justice, and resistance against tyranny.
Such observances not only reaffirm one’s faith but also weave communal bonds that transcend generations. The mosque plays an integral role in the transmission of collective memory, ensuring that the sacrifices of past leaders remain pertinent to contemporary adherents.
