7 | Millions of people around the world gathered to commemorate the anniversary of the martyrdom of Imam Hussain bin Ali, grandson of the Prophet Mohammed. | Olona an-tapitrisany maneran-tany no niaraka nahatsiaro ny tsingerintaonan'ny maritioran'i Imam Hussain Bin Ali, zafikelin'i Mpaminany Mohammed. |
8 | Participants took part in art galleries, blood donations and lectures, and as hundreds of thousands lined up in huge processions marking Ashura, as the day is called, the coverage of international media outlets like AFP, Yahoo, Daily Mail, RT and others, focused on a disputed bloody tradition called tatbir, which involves cutting slits in the scalps of participants. | Nandray anjara tamin'ny fampirantiana zavakanto, fanomezan-drà sy fampianarana ireo mpandray anjara, ary an'hetsiny ireo nilahatra tamin'ny filaharam-be nanamarihana ny Ashura, nifantoka tamin'ny fomban-drazana mihoso-drà nampifanditra, antsoina hoe Tatbir, [ahitana fikapohana loha amin'ny karazan-tsabatra] ny fitantarana navoakan'ireo haino aman-jery iraisampirenena toy ny AFP, Yahoo, Daily Mail sy ny RT sy ny hafa. |
9 | On social media, they were criticized for portraying the story in “biased” news reports instead of showing the full picture of rituals that took place mainly in Iraq, Iran, Lebanon and Bahrain, which have large Shia communities. | Tao amin'ny fampitam-baovao sosialy, dia voakiana amin'ny fitantarana “diso” ry zareo fa tsy mampiseho ny sary feno ny fombafomba izay natao indrindra fa tany Irak, Iran, Libanona ary Bahrain, izay manana vondrom-piarahamonina Shiita betsaka. |
10 | Iraqis hold Ashura rituals in Karbala. | Mihazona ny fomba amam-panao Ashura ao Karbala ny Irakiana. |
11 | Ashura is an annual remembrance of the martyrdom of Imam Hussain, marked on the 10th of the Islamic month of Muharram. | Ny Ashura dia fahatsiarovana fanao isan-taona ny nanaovan'ny Imam Hussain maritiora, marihana amin'ny volana islamika fahafolo, dia ny Muharram. |
12 | Shia Muslims around the world mark this day by attending sermons on the lessons of Imam Hussain's sacrifice for justice and mourning the martyrs of the Karbala massacre that took place some 1,300 years ago. | Manamarika ity andro ity amin'ny alalan'ny fanatrehana toriteny amin'ny leson'ny fisoronantena nataon'ny Imam Hussain mitady ny rariny sy amin'ny alalan'ny fisaonana ny nandripahana ny maritioran'ny Karbala nitranga 1.300 taona lasa izay ny Silamo Shiita. |
13 | Covering the event, AFP in particular came under fire after tweeting a picture of graphic content without prior warning. | Tamin'ny fitaterana ity hetsika ity ny AFP manokana no voakiana rehefa nisioka sary misy votoaty mampihoron-koditra tsy nisy fampilazana mialoha. |
14 | The picture showed Iraqi men who practiced self-flagellation (tatbir in Arabic) as their way of mourning. | Ny sary dia nampiseho lehilahy Irakiana mampihatra ny fikapohan-tena (antsoina hoe tatbir amin'ny teny Arabo) ho toy ny fomba fisaonan-dry zareo. |
15 | @AFP a professional media shouldn't broadcast such sensitive pic without warnings… - Anthony Samaha (@anthonysamaha) October 24, 2015 | Tsy tokony hamoaka sary mampihoronkoditra tahaka izao tsy nisy fampilazana mialoha ny fampitam-baovao matihanina AFP |
16 | @AFP Disturbing. | AFP manakorontana. |
17 | And why should these be released without an advisory? | Ary maninona no avoaka tsy misy fampitandremana ireny? |
18 | What's the point? | Inona ny tanjona? |
19 | - Anshu Chhibber (@AnshuChhibber) October 24, 2015 | Agence France-Presse adala nosimbanareo ny tontolo androko. |
20 | @afp stupid Agence France-Presse you just ruined my day. | |
21 | Thank you! - iDaveV2. | Misaotra anareo! |
22 | 9 (@DaveV2_9) October 24, 2015 Others, who said they related to the religious belief, described the coverage as “biased”. | Ny hafa izay mampifandray azy amin'ny resa-pinoana ara-pivavahana, mamaofivaofy ny fitantarana ho “mitongilana” . |
23 | @AFP I'm a shiite , this is my response to this very biased and coordinated coverage pic.twitter.com/RB3raVtX0u | |
24 | - مراسل 14 فبراير (@Feb14Reporter) October 25, 2015 | Shiita aho, izao no valiny ataoko amin'ity tatitra mitongilana sy voarindra ity |
25 | @AFP If you are going to do a report on something, educate yourself properly. | Ry AFP raha manao tatitra amin-javatra [iray] ianareo, mahaiza manabe ny tenanareo araka ny tokony ho izy. |
26 | It's a shame with what you are doing with your power. | |
27 | - Fatema Jaffer (@Fatemaajaffer) October 24, 2015 | Mahamenatra ny ataonareo amin'ny fahefana anananareo. |
28 | The tweet seems to have sparked anger over a practice that has long been disputed among Shia Muslims themselves after prominent clergymen like Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Sayed Ali Khamenie said it was forbidden and against Islam. | Niteraka fahatezerana manoloana ny fomba iray izany efa niteraka fifandirana hatry ny ela eo amin'ny samy Shiita ny sioka taorian'ny nilazan'ny mpitondra fivavahana malaza sasany tahaka ny Mpitarika Faratampon'i Iran ny Ayatollah Sayed Ali Khamenie fa voarara sy mifanohitra amin'ny Islamo izy io. |
29 | #Tatbir is a fabricated tradition&a heresy;undoubtedly God is not pleased w/ such a practice https://t.co/hfNsRAilYN pic.twitter.com/YCrXY5of8t | Ny tatbir dia fampianaran-diso nentindrazana noforonina, tsy isalasalana fa tsy mankasitraka izao fomba izao i Andriamanitra |
30 | - RT khamenei (@RT_Khamenei) October 24, 2015 | Tsy nanao ny devoarany tamin'ny fitantarana ve ny AFP? |
31 | Has the AFP not done its homework on the news story? | Tsy naharitra ny sasany fa nibedy hoe fitantarana tsy mendrika atao amin'ireo sokajin'ny mpino izao. |
32 | Some replies couldn't help but to blame that this was intentional unfair coverage of a category of believers. | Asehonareo ny sarin'ny 100 amin'ireo olona manao izany, fa maninona ianareo no tsy mampiseho ny sarin'ny Shiita an-tapitrisany tsy manaiky izany! mba menatra |
33 | @AFP you showed pictures of 100 people who does this, why don't you show pictures for millions of shia who disagree with it! shame on you | Raha mba nahalala tsaratsara kokoa ianareo dia nahalala fa tsy ny Shiita rehetra no manao io ‘fomba' io Manaiky ny Sonita rehetra sy ny ankamaroan'ny Shiita fa tsy Islamika io |
34 | - م. ميثم العطار (@Maitham_Alattar) October 25, 2015 | Tsy afa-belan'ny tsikera ihany koa ireo sampam-baovao hafa. |
35 | @AFP @ahmed6216 if you knew any better you'd know not all Shias comply to this ‘ritual' | |
36 | - Yas (@yasmineali__) October 24, 2015 @AFP all Sunnis and most Shias agree this is not Islamic. | Mila manao fikarohana ihany ianareo ry zareo satria tsy mino ny tatbir ny Shiita fa voarara amin'ny fivavahanay izany!!! |
37 | - تاتـولوژی. مرسی، اه. | Fantaro izany |
38 | (@blackvvine) October 24, 2015 | |
39 | Other media outlets have not escaped the criticism, too. | |
40 | @RT_com you people need to do some research because Shias do not believe in tatbir it is forbidden in our religion!!! Understand that! | Angamba voamarika ny maha-fivoriana milamina lehibe indrindra azy manerantany, mahatsiaro ny olona amin'ny finoana rehetra saingy tsia ny tatbir ihany no ifantohan-dry zareo |
41 | - souha (@Souha0_o) October 25, 2015 Maybe mention its largest peaceful gathering in world, people of all faiths commemorate but no they focus on tatbir. https://t.co/u7ph5kN9Y2 | Rehefa mandeha sy voasintontsitona amin'ny toerana samihafa ny resaka, dia misy ny sasany nieritreritra fa mety hanome sary mazava kokoa amin'ny diabe ara-pivavahana Ashura ny manao ny devoaran'ny AFP. |
42 | - Hasan Hafidh (@HasHafidh) October 25, 2015 | Avy ao karbala ihany koa ity sa jamban'ny fankahalana ianareo. |
43 | As the conversation went on and drifted in different directions, some thought doing AFP's homework might help in giving viewers a clearer picture of the Ashura processions. | |
