As part of the closing events of Ashura, activists announced that the central prayer of the tenth eve this year will be led by Sheikh Mahmoud Al-A'ali at the Al-Khawaja Mosque in the capital, Manama.

"Rasd", a network specialized in security movements, raids and arrests, said that the Bahraini security authorities decided on Saturday (August 6, 2022) to arrest Sadiq Haidar from Al-Markh and present him to the Public Prosecution after summoning him for interrogation.

Eulogy reciter Mohammed Al-Hujeirat said that he left Bahrain after he was informed that he is banned from reciting in Bahrain without knowing the main reason, adding that it is "a security decision from the Interior Ministry".

The security authorities continued their harassment against the Shiite sect and removed Ashura manifestations in Salman City and Al-Houra, according to video clips taken by activists.

Al-Wefaq National Islamic Society, largest political opposition society, said that the security authorities prevented Shiite citizens from leaving the country to visit holy sites in Iraq.

Activists on social media outlets published (August 2, 2020) videos showing taking down Ashura banners and signs from A'ali.

Al-Wefaq Deputy Secretary General Sheikh Hussein Al-Daihi criticized the Bahraini authorities' continued crackdown on Shiite citizens as they commemorate Ashura rituals, considering what is happening part of a "bigoted policy that has grown and expanded in recent years."
