Muharram Ajmer, 2011 Moharram 2011 Ajmer, 2011 Muharram 2012 Ajmer, Moharram, 2012 Ajmer, 2012, Muharram Ajmer
Holy Muharram (Arabic: محرم)
is the first month of the Islamic calendar. It is one of the four months
of the year in which fighting is prohibited. Since the Islamic calendar
is lunar, Muharram moves from year to year when compared with the
Gregorian calendar. Muharram is so called because it was unlawful to
fight during this month; the word is derived from the word ‘haram’
meaning forbidden. It is held to be the most sacred of all the months,
excluding Ramadan. Some Muslims fast during these days. The tenth day of
Muharram is called Yaumu-l 'Ashurah, meaning, ‘the tenth day’, and it is
a day of voluntary fasting. Fasting differs among the Muslim groupings;
mainstream All Muslims stop eating and drinking during sunlight hours
and do not eat until the evening. Sunni Muslims also fast during
Muharram and on either the ninth or the eleventh day, the choice of
which additional day being at the discretion of the individual.
The word "Muharram" is often considered synonymous with the event of
Ashura. Ashura, which literally means "tenth" in Arabic, refers to the
tenth day of Muharram. The date is important for all muslims especially since Hussein bin Ali, the 3rd (2nd) Imam of
All Muslims attained
martyrdom on this day.
