'''Maqam Ra’s al-Hussain''' (Arabic: مقام رأسُ الحُسَین) refers to various sites that have been claimed to house [[Hussain ibn Ali|Imam Hussain]]’s head. Although there is consensus that the body of Imam Hussain is buried in [[Karbala]], the burial of the head is open to debate. However, according to majority of [[Shiʿa|Shi’a]] sources, Imam Hussain’s head was eventually returned from Damascus and attached to his torso in Karbala and buried there.
