Muharram

Eeeeep, I'm asleep at the wheel. Tomorrow inshaAllah, will mark the start of the month of Muharram, the first month of the Islamic calendar.

Happy 1428 AH!

Lots of good things to do in this month, including fasting on the 10th, the day of Ashura. Sheikh Rabbani covers other obligations and recommendations in his article on the fiqh of Muharram at Sunnipath


For the Shi'i perspective, Sister Scorpion used to do some spiffy Muharram blogging, which she has archived on her blog. She hasn't mentioned anything about it this year though.
