عاشوراء
The Day of Ashura (, meaning the tenth day) in Morocco has been a traditionally day of celebration and joy. Ashura, which is celebrated on the tenth day of Muharram across the Muslim world, and is particularly significant for Shia Muslims, for whom it is a day of mourning. Moroccans, however, embrace this day with cheerful remembrance of those who have died. It is a custom to pay visit to cemetery pray for the departed ones.
