📿 Spiritual Significance of Muharram
“The best of fasting after Ramadan is in the Month of Allaah – Muharram.”
— Saheeh Muslim
This month marks the beginning of the Hijri calendar, commemorating the historic migration (Hijrah) of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ from Makkah to Madinah — a journey that reshaped history and began a new era for the Muslim Ummah.
The sacredness of Muharram is not only in its historical context but also in its spiritual opportunities. It is a time to reconnect with Allaah Kareem through:
-
Voluntary fasting – Especially on the Day of Ashura (10th Muharram) and the 9th or 11th as the Prophet ﷺ encouraged.
-
Reflection and repentance – Welcoming the Islamic New Year with pure intentions.
-
Supplication (du‘a), dhikr, and charity – Increasing in good deeds for the sake of Allaah Kareem.
