Muharram

Muharram

In Muharram 1434, Hadrat Maulana Abdul Hamid Saheb delivered a lecture on the new Islamic year. Hadrat Maulana discussed the great bounty of time which is abstract, the alternating of the various seasons, the months of the year, etc. The start of the Islamic year should be a time for one to reflect on his life and make a firm resolution to discard sins.Unfortunately, many Muslims are unaware of the start of the new Islamic year, yet a person living in the remote jungles of Africa will be aware of the new Christian year. Hadrat D.B. has created awareness of the Islamic year, dates, etc. to a great extent amongst his disciples. We live in non-Muslim countries thus many Muslims have even forgotten the names of the Islamic months as well, which is generally taught in Madressa at primary level.
