Photos Show Muslims Marking Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) Death Anniversary in Holy Al-Najaf

Crowds of believers marked Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) death anniversary and the martyrdom of his grandson Imam Hasan (AS) at Imam Ali (AS) Holy Shrine in the Iraqi city of Al-Naja, offering condolences to the Prophet’s cousin.

Muslims around the world hold on the 28th of the Hijri Month of Safar mourning ceremonies to mark the anniversary of the demise of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).

Upon returning from Mecca to Medina, Prophet Muhammad fell ill for several days and died on June 8, 632, at the age of 62.

The Iraqi authorities and Hashd Shaabi (Paramilitary forces) secured the pilgrims marking the occasion and provided them with all the needed services.
