Muslims visit the holy Shiite shrine of Imam Hussein, grandson of prophet Mohammed, in Karbala, 90 miles south of Baghdad, on Aug. 14. Iranians, who had visited the shrines in droves after the holy places were reopened to them two years ago, have stayed away since the end of July due to a dispute over pilgrimage fees that has also hurt Iraq's fragile tourism economy.
