SUMMARY:Muharram (Tentative Date)
DESCRIPTION:Many Muslims in countries such as the United States observe the start of the Islamic New Year on the first day of Muharram\, which is the first month in the Islamic calendar. \nIs Muharram a Public Holiday?\nMuharram is not a public holiday. It falls on Sunday\, July 7\, 2024 and most businesses follow regular Sunday opening hours in United States. \nWhat Do People Do?\nSome Islamic organizations in the United States post announcements reminding people of the first day of Muharram prior to the event. Muharram is one of the four sanctified months in the Islamic calendar. Some Muslim Americans choose to fast during this month\, although fasting is not obligatory. Many Muslims engage in voluntary prayer\, including evening prayer\, during Muharram. \nThe Day of Ashura (or Ashurah) is known as the most sacred day in the month of Muharram. It is the 10th day of Muharram and is a day of fasting for many Sunni Muslims. Many Shi’a Muslims use the day to commemorate the martyrdom of Husayn ibn Ali in 680 CE. Some Muslims give to charity on this day. \nPublic Life\nThe first day of Muharram is an Islamic observance and is not a federal public holiday in the United States. \nBackground\nMuharram is the first month in the Islamic year and a time of mourning and peace. It is forbidden for Muslims to fight during this month. A number of important events in Islamic history have occurred in the month of Muharram. These include: \n\nThe Battle of Karbala (currently in Iraq) on the tenth day of Muharram in the year 680 CE\, during which Husayn ibn Ali\, a grandson of the Prophet Muhammed\, and his companions were killed.\nThe restriction of Husayn ibn Ali’s access to water on the seventh day.\n\nThe Shi’a and Sunni denominations of Islam attach different weights to these events and mark them in different ways.

SUMMARY:Ashura  (Tentative Date)
DESCRIPTION:The Day of Ashura is the 10th day of the Islamic month of Muharram. The Prophet Muhammad singled it out as a recommended fasting day and made it a meritorious act for his followers. He also recommended fasting the day before and after. Through fasting\, all of one’s sins for the previous year are forgiven. It is also a day singled out for charity\, visiting the sick\, and extra worship. \nIt is narrated that many important events in sacred history occurred on the day of Ashura\, most importantly the salvation of Moses and his followers and the drowning of the Pharaoh. Also\, Noah’s Ark is said to have landed atop a mountain as the flood waters receded. In commemoration of this event\, there is a tradition in many Muslim cultures to cook a hearty yet sweet stew of hulled wheat and other ingredients said to have been left towards the end of the Ark’s journey. In the years after the death of the Prophet\, his grandson\, Husayn\, was martyred on the day of Ashura; his sacrifice and the noble rank of his family is honored on this day. \n
