25 Muharram Quotes and Wishes for Islamic New Year



 The Islamic calendar is a full lunar calendar with 12 months, each with 29 or 30 days. The year begins with a holy month named Muharram. Literally, the Arabic word "Muharram" means "that which is made sacred." A holy month in Islam is a month in which fighting is prohibited to maintain peace. Salvation in Islam is earned by one's own hard work. Each person has a balance of his own good deeds and sins based on his intentions and actions. In holy months, good deeds multiply and gain more weight, but so do sins; Sins are considered more serious in holy months.

The second importance of Muharram is the day called Ashura. Ashura means "tenth" and refers to the tenth day of the month. It is believed that on this day Prophet Moses and his people were saved from Pharaoh by the parting of the sea. For this reason (before the Quran enjoins fasting during the month of Ramadan), the Prophet Muhammad used to fast on the 10th of Muharram. To this day, some Muslims may fast on Ashura, the 10th of Muharram - however, this is optional.

Muharram additionally denotes the last month of political distress and is the month wherein Husayn, the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad, was martyred. His martyrdom is an event celebrated especially by Shia Muslims. This can be done through mass ceremonies in Shia communities and the overall practice of mourning and sadness.

What is Muharram?

Muharram is the first Islamic month on the 12-month Islamic lunar calendar. Its date varies every year on the solar Gregorian calendar. It moves back about 10 days each year, which is much earlier than the previous year on the solar calendar. This means that it also varies throughout the seasons.

Why is Muharram so special?

Muharram is an Arabic word that translates to "that which is made holy". It is a holy month on the Islamic calendar. It is also the first month of the Islamic calendar, marking the beginning of the new Hijri year – the era used in the Islamic lunar calendar.

According to Islamic law, an Islamic year consists of four holy months, or Ashurul Hurum. It is stated in the Quran:

“God decrees that there are twelve months — ordained in God’s Book on the Day when He created the heavens and earth — four months of which are sacred: this is the correct calculation.”

— 9:36

Ramzan is a popular and holy month, but not a holy month. There are four holy months: Muharram, Rajab, Dhul-Qadda, and Dhul-Hijjah. Muharram is the first month of the Islamic calendar, Rajab is the third month, Dhul-Qadda is the eleventh month and Dhul-Hijjah is the twelfth and final month. Dhul-Hijjah is the month in which Eid al-Adha occurs. Of the four holy months, three are consecutive and one month (Rajab) is lonely.

How do people celebrate Muharram?

Prophet Muhammad's grandson was martyred in Muharram; An event that is celebrated with great enthusiasm in Shia congregations.
