Shiite Muslims flagellate themselves with chains and blades during traditional procession to mark Ashura in Pakistan

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]

Photos taken on the streets of Peshawar, Pakistan show a group of Shiite Muslims completing self-flagellation

For Shiite Muslims involved in the ritual, it is believed that self-flagellation washes away all of their sins

The procession marked Ashura and commemorates the death of Hussein, grandson of Prophet Muhammad
