2. ISLAM HOLY DAYS:
There are only two Muslim festivals set down in Islamic law: Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-
Adha ( Eid is a word significance for festival). But there are also several other unique
days which Muslims celebrate. Some Muslims disapprove of commemorateing the
birthday of the Prophet (pbuh), on the grounds that it is an innovation, and novelty in
religious matters are prohibited.
Some Muslims say that if amended were made in sacred issues it would entail that Islam
was not absolute when it was exposed to the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), or that the
Prophet (pbuh) did not tell Muslims everything that was revealed to him. This would be
seen as extremely irreverent by many Muslims.
1. Eid ul Fitr: (1 Shawwal):-
This marks the end of Ramadan, the month of fasting, and is a festival of great
celebration. In Islamic countries it is a public holiday.
The first Eid was celebrated in 624 CE by the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) with his
comrades and kins after the triumph of the battle of Ghazwa -e-Badar. Muslims are not
only celebrating the end of fasting, but expressing gratitude to Allah Almighty for the
assistance and potency that he gave them throughout the previous month to help them
carry out self-control. The fiesta begins when the first view of the new moon is seen in
the sky.
The festive feeling is enlarged by everyone wearing best or new attire, and decorating
their homes. There are extraordinary services out of doors and in masjids, parade through
the streets, and of course, a special celebratory meal-eaten during daytime, the first
daytime meal Muslims will have had in a month. Eid is also marked as a time of pardon,
and making atonement.
2. Ashura: (10 Muharram):-
Shi'aat in particular use the day to commemorate the martyrdom of Hussain, a grandson
of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in 680 A.D.
It marks two past events: the day Nuh (Noah) left the Ark , and the day that Musa
(Moses) was saved from the Egyptians by Allah Almighty . Shi'aat in particular exercise
the day to honor the martyrdom of Hussain, a grandson of the Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh) in 680 A.D. In Shi'aat communities this is a somber day: plays a replica of
martyrdom, repeatedly staged and many take part in bereavement ceremony.
3. 3. Al-Hijra: (1 Muharram):-
This carnival celebrates the Hijra (or Hegira) in 622 A.D when the Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh) moved from Mecca to Medina .
Al-Hijra, the Islamic New Year, is the first day of the month of Muharram. It symbols the
Hijra (or Hegira) in 622 A.D when the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) moved from Mecca to
Medina , and set up the first Islamic state. The Muslim calendar counts dates from the
Hijra.
There is no precise spiritual service required on this day, but Muslims will think about the
broad meaning of Hijra, and observe this as a good time for "New Year Resolutions".
The Qur'an uses the word Hijra to mean moving from a bad place or state of affairs to a
good one - and so Muslims may believe about how their belief helps them leave behind
bad ways of living and attain a healthier life. The date marks the opening of Islam as a
community in which pious and earthly life were completely incorporated. It was a
community inspired by God, and totally obedient to God; a group of people bound as one
by faith.
By breaking the connection with his own clan the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) established
that tribal and family loyalties were unimportant compared to the bonds of Islam. This
Muslim community grew progressively over time, unifying the many tribes that had
made up the Arab world in advance. Islam now evolved as a joint spiritual and earthly
community, with political and military power working hand in hand with spiritual
authority and direction. At the same time the community developed the religious and
ethical codes of actions that still provide the base of Muslim existence.
4. Lailat al Qadr (27 Ramadan):-
The fiesta of The Night of command symbols the night in which the Qur'an was first
opened to the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) by Allah Almighty .
Muslims observe this as the most important event in history, and the Qur'an says that this
night is better than a thousand months (97:3), and that on this night the angels come
down to earth. This is a festival that Muslims spend in study and prayer. Some will spend
the whole night in prayer or in reciting the Qur'an. The date of 27 Ramadan for this day is
a customary date, as the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) did not tell us when the Night of
Power would be, although he suggested it was in the last 10 days of the month. As of this,
many Muslims will treat the last 10 days of the month of Ramadan as a mainly fine time
for prayer and understanding the Qur'an.
4. Mawlid al-Nabi is a celebration of the birthday of the Prophet Muhammad, the founder of
Islam in 570 CE. Sunni Muslims observed it on the 12th of the lunar month of Rabi'-ul-
Awwal in the Islamic calendar. Shi'a Muslims celebrate it five days later. "The Mawlid
al-Nabi was first observed around the thirteenth century and was preceded by a month of
celebration. The actual day of Muhammad's birthday included a sermon, recitation of
litanies, honoring of religious dignitaries, gift giving, and a feast. The festival spread
throughout the Muslim world and is celebrated in many countries today. However, some
conservative sects (e.g., the Wahhabiyah) consider the celebration to be idolatrous."
5. Ramadan:
is the holiest period in the Islamic year; it is held during the entire 9th lunar month of the
year. This was the month in which the Qura'n was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad.
The first day of Ramadan is listed above. It is a time at which almost all Muslims over
the age of 12 are expected to fast from sunup to sundown, unless they suffer from health
problems which would make fasting dangerous.
6. Id al-Adha
(a.k.a. the Feast of Sacrifice or Day of Sacrifice) occurs during the 12th month of the
Islamic year. This immediately follows the Hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca). It recalls the day
when Abraham intended to follow the instructions of God, and sacrifice his son Ishmael.
(This is not a typo; Muslims believe that Abraham was prepared to sacrifice his elder son
Ishmael; Judeo-Christians believe that it was Isaac who was involved in the near
sacrifice).
7. Lailat al Miraj (27 Rajab)
The night journey and ascent of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), and the revelation of
Salat.
The festival is celebrated by telling the beautiful story of how the Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh) was visited by two archangels while he was asleep, who purified his heart and
filled him with knowledge and faith.
The Prophet (pbuh) travelled from Mecca to Jerusalem in a single night on a strange
winged creature called Burqa. From Jerusalem he ascended into heaven, where he met
5. the earlier prophets, and eventually God. During his time in heaven Muhammad (pbuh)
was told of the duty of Muslims to recite Salat (ritual prayer) 5 times a day.
8. Lailat al Qadr (27 Ramadan)
The festival of The Night of Power marks the night in which the Qur'an was first revealed
to the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) by Allah. Muslims regard this as the most important
event in history, and the Qur'an says that "this night is better than a thousand months"
(97:3), and that on this night the angels descend to earth.
This is a festival that Muslims spend in study and prayer. Some will spend the whole
night in prayer or in reciting the Qur'an.
Lailat al Qadr is a good time to ask for forgiveness. Allah's Apostle said,
"Whoever establishes the prayers on the night of Qadr out of sincere faith and hoping to
attain Allah's rewards (not to show off) then all his past sins will be forgiven." (Bukhari
Vol 1, Book 2: 34)
The date of 27 Ramadan is a traditional date, as the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) did not
tell us when the Night of Power would be, although he suggested it was in the last 10
days of the month. Because of this, many Muslims will treat the last 10 days of the month
of Ramadan as a particularly good time for prayer and reading the Qur'an.
