The day of A`shura 1447 – 2025
June 25, 2025

We are pleased to announce that the first day of Muharram 1447 will be on Thursday 26th June 2025 Insha Allah.
Hence the day of A`shura falls on the 10th Day of Muharram corresponding to Saturday 5th July 2025.


According to a narration reported by Aishah (RA), the wife of the Prophet SAW, it was a pre-Islamic tradition of the Quraish and people of Makkah to fast on the 10th day of Muharram. The Prophet SAW also observed it. However, when he migrated to Madinah, the Prophet SAW found that a group of ‘the People of the Book’ were also fasting on the same day. Rasulullah SAW asked them the reason why they were fasting on that day and they replied 

هذا يَوْمٌ عَظِيمٌ، وهو يَوْمٌ نَجَّى اللَّهُ فيه مُوسَى، وأَغْرَقَ آلَ فِرْعَوْنَ، فَصَامَ مُوسَى شُكْرًا لِلَّهِ‏

“This is a blessed day. On this day, Allah saved (Prophet) Musa and drowned the people of Firaun (the pharoah), and so Prophet Musa AS fasted on this day to give thanks to Allah..”
(Sahih Al-Bukhari)

We urge the Muslim community to observe fast on this blessed day and make duas for the people of Palestine and other Muslims who have been persecuted and afflicted with natural disasters.
May Allah SWT bless us all.
