Mosque floors run red in  India after Indian Shiite Muslims use whips with knives at the end to whip themselves in honor of the Imam Hussein, a grandson of the Prophet Mohammad.  Unbelievable to witness the scene inside of the Mosque and the scars created upon themselves for a Holy reason.  Hit the jump for pics.
