July 16-17 is Ashura, the 10th day of the Islamic month of Muharram. For Sunni Muslims, Ashura marks the parting of the Red Sea by Moses and the salvation of the Israelites. It is also the day that Noah disembarked from the Ark, God forgave Adam and Joseph was released from prison. Traditions include a day of fasting followed by carnivals, special meals and bonfires. Ashure, or Noah's pudding, is a popular dessert to make, which symbolizes the celebratory meal Noah made when he came off the Ark.

For Shia Muslims, Ashura is a day of mourning as they commemorate the death of Husayn ibn Ali, the grandson of Muhammad. Ashura is observed through mourning gatherings, processions and reenactments.
