- Reason
- The Mourning of Muharram has begun so I remembered to nominate this image from last year. Contrary to what is seen in the media, the vast majority of the people commemorate the occasion peacefully without any bloody activities. IMO this image counters the bias and adds EV to the articles by showing what a majlis looks like. The image has been stable in the articles for over 7 months.
- Articles in which this image appears
- Muharram, Mourning of Muharram

- Given that this is a lecture, wouldn't it be better if we could see the lecturer? File:Inside the Hussainia during Muharram.jpg seems better to me for this reason. Noodle snacks (talk) 09:33, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
- Added that as an alt --Muhammad(talk) 10:07, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

- Support Alt The depth of field is thin, but its obviously dark in there. Noodle snacks (talk) 22:23, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose I just don't view either of these as worthy of FP status. They don't add very much to the article, and there is nothing particularly striking about them. -- mcshadypl TC 03:00, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
- Support orig as it has good EV; although some blue level reduction would help. Nergaal (talk) 20:24, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
- But it doesn't have a scale, Nergaal! :P Aaadddaaammm (talk) 20:36, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
- PS. How could you have supported this with no scale! Aaadddaaammm (talk) 20:43, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

- Oppose. Your main reason listed is "political", but the photo's just not outstanding. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 20:36, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose. Sorry, got agree with the above opposers. J Milburn (talk) 01:00, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose I have to agree with the above opposers. Definitely, the original could just be a bunch of people in a room, and the alt is not stunning technically. LOL Aaadddaaammm, you make me laugh! SMasters (talk) 09:13, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
