Today is the day when Prophet Moses did split the red sea to escape Pharoas Is there a name for this holiday? Of course I know the story, but I had no idea there's people in the world who 'celebrate' it as a specific day. If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

bestmen 2,668 Posted Tuesday at 07:27 PM #7933 Share Posted Tuesday at 07:27 PM What is the Day of Ashura? There are certain days in the year which are more virtuous than others, one such day is the 10th of Muharram which is known as the Day of Ashura, falling in the first month of the Islamic lunar calendar. The word Ashura is derived from the word “Asharah”, which means ten in Arabic. It is believed the Day of Ashura commemorates various historical events, including the day when Prophet Moses (Musa) and the Israelites were saved from the tyranny of Pharaoh in Egypt.

They obviously combined all the men's and women's events and I doubt they are going to compete in all weight classes in the combat/weightlifting events.
