Muharram {Eid} The Festival Of Muslim

                                                                                  
  Muharram refers to the first month of the Islamic Calendar. One of my Muslim friend told me that  Muharram is also considered as New Year of Muslim religion. The complete month of Muharram is sacred according to the Muslims. The tenth day of Muharram is most significance to the Muslim people. Different factions of the Muslim community observe this day for different reason. The word Muharram means "forbidden". It is held to be the second holiest month, following the Ramadan. And also some Muslims fast during these days.
Shia Muslims during Muharram do different things and with different intentions. Not only Shia people, Sunni people do the mourning on Imam Hussein. They observe and respect Muharram as the month that martyred Hussein ibn Ali, the grandson of Muhamad and son of Ali, in the battle of Karbala. They mourn for Hussein ibn Ali and refrain from all joyous events.  Unlike Sunni Muslims, Shias do not fast on the 10th day of Muharram. Muharram is a month of remembrance and modern Shia meditation that is often considered synonymous with Ashura. Ashura, which literally means the "Tenth" in Arabic, refers to the tenth day of Muharram  Shiite begin mourning from the first night of Muharram and continue for ten days, climaxing on the tenth of Muharram, known as the day of Ashura.
