Chup Tazia (Bengali: চুপ তাজিয়া; Urdu: چُپ تَعِزْیَہ) or silent tazia is the name given to religious processions held mostly on 8th of Rabi' al-awwal by Twelver Shia Muslims in Bangladesh, India and Pakistan to commemorate the death of Imam Hasan al-Askari, the eleventh of the Twelver Shi'a Imams.[1] The procession is usually regarded as the last procession of the mourning period that begins in the Islamic month of Muharram.[2]
