This week Salim is joined by Emily Garthwaite, a 25-year-old photojournalist from London who returned back from Iraq a few weeks ago having travelled to photograph the Arbaeen pilgrimage.

The Arbaeen pilgrimage is one of the largest peaceful gatherings that takes annually and it marks 40 days after the day of Ashura, which commemorates the death of Hussain ibn Ali, the grandson of Prophet Muhammad. He was killed alongside his family members and close companions in the city of Karbala in the year 61 After Hijra. Every year millions of pilgrims flock to Iraq to remember Imam Hussain and the stand that he took against the tyrant Yazid.
