Parcham Kushai 404 Moss Lane East Manchester Muharram 2011

the parcham kushai (raising of the flag) symbolises the start of muharram for many shia, who replace the standard red flag found in hussainias with a special black one, which demonstrates a period of mourning (similar to flying flags at half mast in many european countries)

the flag itself is a representation of the flag held by the flag bearer of hussain (as) - his brother ghazi abbas, known as the "alamadar".

noha recited by brothers imran kazmi, sibte kazmi, kesar kazmi, asim kazmi, naeem kazmi and haseeb kazmi
