@kali@discuss.systemsLoool haha xD
It has Azerbaijani subtitles. Haydar is a nickname for Ali, by the way it means "strong lion." They even made a Lego version of that xD
That chanting and self-chastising is a form of Shia mystic zikr, a kind of ecstatic prayer. Rooted in Shia Muharram mourning rituals, self‑flagellation (tatbir)

But in Sufi zikr/dhikr, for example, they chant only God’s name as a form of ecstatic union; in those Muharram chants, Shia mourn the martyrdom of Ali’s family (Ali/Husayn and his sons), as far as I know.
