MUHARRAM THE MONTH OF ALLAH

MUHARRAM
THE MONTH OF
ALLAH

The month of Allah, al-Muharram,

is a great and blessed month. It is

the first month of the Hiri year

and is one of the sacred months.

Literally meaning 'forbidden', Muharram is

one of the four sacred months (Dhul Haji,

Dhul Qa'dah, and Rajab). According to the

Islamic teachings, the month of Muharram

is so sacred that certain actions become

forbidden during it, as they violate its

sanctity. You can better understand the

significance

It is a month when the rewards for good

deeds are multiplied; when the Prophet

(saw) encouraged voluntary fasts and

described it as the 'sacred month of Allah'

What does the Quran say about Muharram?

Verily, the number of months with Allah is

twelve months (in a year), so was it

ordained by Allah on the Day when He

created the heavens and the earth; of them,

four are Sacred, (i.e., the 1st, the 7th, the

11th and the 12th months of the Islamic

calendar). That is the right religion, so

wrong, not yourselves therein" [Surah

At-Tawbah 9:36].

In Katheer (RA), regarding the verse,

explains, "Allah has chosen elites from His

creation: from among the angels He chose

Messengers, from among mankind He chose

Messengers, from among speech He chose

remembrance of Him (dhikr), from among

spaces on earth He chose the mosques, from

among the months He chose Ramadan and the

sacred months. So, venerate that which has

been chosen by Allah, for people of

understanding and wisdom respect that which

has been chosen by Him". (Tafseer Ibn Katheer)

WHY DO WE FAST THE DAY OF ASHURA? WHY DO WE FAST THE DAY OF ASHURA REASON WHY PROPHET MUHAMMAD ﷺ FASTED THE DAY OF AASHOORAA, IT'S THE GREAT DAY WHEN ALLAH SAVED MOSA عليه السلام AND HIS PEOPLE, AND DROWNED PHARAOH AND HIS PEOPLE. MOSA عليه السلام FASTED ON THIS DAY IN GRATITUDE TO ALLAH SUBHANAWATAALA. SO WE MUST FAST IT OUT OF RESPECT FOR IT. FASTING THE DAY OF 'ASHOORA' EXPIATES SINS FOR THE PAST YEAR. NARRATED BY MUSLIM1162. THE PROPHET MUHAMMADﷺ SAID: "FASTING THE DAY OF "'ASHOORA' I HOPE ALLAAH WILL EXPIATE THEREBY FOR THE YEAR THAT CAME BEFORE IT.” PROPHET MUHAMMAD ﷺ WAS KEEN TO FAST THIS DAY SAHIH BUKHARI 1902 THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD ﷺ USED TO BE VERY KEEN TO MAKE SURE HE FASTED ON THE DAY OF 'ASHOORA' BECAUSE OF ITS GREAT STATUS.
