Muharram
Fasting during the month of Muharram is very good, as after Ramadan, the fasts
of this month are better than the rest.
Plan for keeping a fast on tenth (10th) of Muharram (Ashura) for keeping fast on
this day is very good.
And also for the reason that the Jews celebrate Eid on this day so by keeping
fast on this day demonstrate dissidence and opposition to them.
The Jews, not only celebrate Eid on the day of Ashura, but also keep fast on
this day. Therefore as an attempt to demonstrate further dissidence and
opposition to them, along with 10th also keep a fast on 9th of Muharram.
By keeping fast on Ashura, all the sins of the preceding year are forgiven.
Note: Besides the above-mentioned events, whatever is done during the
month of Muharram is without any evidence or proof. It may be first or tenth of
Muharram or the events taking place during the Ashura or the whole month of
Muharram. Even there is no narration in support of serving food on tenth of
Muharram. The holy prophet, SallAllah-u-Alaihi-wa-Sallam, by declaring Muharram
as the month of Allah, has pointed towards its sacredness and sanctity. As such
all the events related to joy and happiness can be celebrated during the month
of Muharram.
Muharram is a month of sanctity and reverence, and there ought to be no war in
this month. |
