Isla, sorry, I am not here to point out 'chapter-and-verses' of the koran as I know you can find them if you want to know.

But a little about how this came about:

They are cutting their childrens heads multiple times based on the point that Hussein refused to accept Yazid's legitimacy as their leader so Hussein waged war with Yazid, lost and his men were massacred in the battle.

Bit simplistic I know but that about sums it up without going into their disagreements and the cutting is not koran based.
