The month of Muharram, one of the most significant months in the Islamic calendar, is expected to commence on June 27, 2025, according to astronomical calculations and moon sighting predictions. The important day of Ashura, which holds deep religious significance, will likely be observed on July 6.

Muharram marks the beginning of the Islamic New Year and is a time of reflection, mourning, and remembrance for Muslims worldwide. The tenth day, Ashura, commemorates the martyrdom of Imam Hussain (RA) and is observed with various religious rituals, including processions and special prayers.

Religious scholars and authorities urge communities to prepare for Muharram observances with spiritual devotion and peace. The dates remain subject to official moon sighting announcements, which will confirm the exact start of the month.

This period is also a time for increased charity, fasting, and remembrance of historical sacrifices that shaped Islamic heritage.
