Kashmiri's Observes Death Anniversary of Imam-E-Ali

Kashmiri Muslim devotee prays, at Hazratbal shrine to mark the death anniversary of Imam-e- Ali, the cousin and the son-in-law of the Prophet Muhammad in Srinagar, the summer capital of Indian administered Kashmir, India, on June 6, 2018. Muslims from all over Kashmir visit the Dargah shrine in the Hazratbal area of Srinagar to mark the death anniversary of Caliph, cousin and the son-in-law of the Prophet Muhammad. The shrine is highly revered by Kashmiri Muslims as it is believed to house a holy relic of the Prophet Mohammed. The relic is displayed to the devotees on important Islamic days. The Muslims believe that prophet Muhammad designated imam-e- Ali as his successor by God's command and Ali was Muhammad's first-cousin and closest living male relative as well as his son-in-law, having married Muhammad's daughter Fatimah.
