Sajid Ahmed Umar – Why does the Hijri Calendar Start with the month of Muharram?

			Okay, the next question states Why does the Islamic calendar begin with Muharram when the hegira was
done in robiola? Oh, well,
		

			this is a good question. The Islamic calendar is known as the history calendar. And it consists of
12 lunar months, starting with the month of Muharram.
		

			This calendar, the history calendar, or the Islamic calendar, as we know it, it wasn't legislated at
the time of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam, but at the time of admirable hubbub about the
Allah one,
		

			and there's a story behind this
		

			there was a person who
		

			entered into a contractual dispute with another party because he claimed that he was owed money in
advance. So when this match was brought to armor, armor, robiola, and he said, would shatter ban of
this year or of last year.
		

			And then Omar, felt that there was a need for a formal calendar to come into existence to solve
these contractual disputes and ease
		

			trade
		

			between rages and contractual matters between those entering into contract. So honorable hottub,
gathered the Sahaba and
		

			there were different views on the table. Some said, you know, utilize the calendar system of other
civilizations like the bison times or the Persians and Omar was averse to this or Viola and
		

			and then
		

			suggestions were made that why don't we use the birthdate of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
		

			Or, another suggestion was was regarding the his mission from Mecca to Medina. From the time he left
the land of polytheism to the land, which became the land of tawheed. Obviously, before the opening
of Mk. And this suggestion as some nation state was made by Isley robiola, why
		

			and Omar love this idea. Now, obviously, if they went with the birthdate of the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, then this could have been problematic because the birth date wasn't exactly set in
stone. And we know there's different views amongst the scholars regarding the exact birth date of
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam as of the death date, then this was the day of sadness when
they lost the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. So it starting then would have been
		

			sort of cue or trigger towards grief. So they settled or I mean, they, you know, they could have
started it based on when the Prophetic Mission started, as some of the scholar said, that you'll
have 100 mentions that he mentions that
		

			this could have been a start date as well, a possible start date, but again,
		

			there were different views regarding the exact start date of the mission as for the history or
something known, everyone knew about it, this is not something that was a point of difference of
opinion. So Omar will have probably Allah when he settled on, on this now this was formalized, some
sources say the 16th after some say the 17th he after his era, some say the 18th year after his
Allah, Allah Subhana Allah knows best, but this is sort of the idea surrounding the historic
calendar, why does it start in Muharram? This is the question when the hegira happened in Enderby
alone.
		

			Scholars have said scholars have discussed this they said that the hedgerow became a real thing
after the Pledge of Allegiance which took place in bullhead jam, alright, which was the tough month
of the previous year before the the prophets of Allah Allah was in the migrated. And then in
Muharram, the idea of the Hydra became a real thing and plans were being put into play. And people
were being told to, you know, to start to to be prepared to leave. And we know that people started
leaving in different groups before the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam eventually left when did
the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam eventually leave. Again, this is a matter of difference
		

			between the scholars. But some sources say that it was the 27th of Suffolk which is the second month
of the Islamic calendar, but the idea of the hydro becoming real and be and you know, people being
told to Now get ready to shift their residents. This was from Harlem. So even if the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam left during the 27th of Suffolk and arrived in Medina, on the 12th of
Riviera. Well, this doesn't take away from the fact that the entire idea of the hitcher calendar is
based on the idea and it became a real reality in Muharram and thus the Islamic calendar begins with
Muharram being the first month and Allah subhanho wa Taala knows best
