Significance of Muharram and the Islamic New Year The Islamic New Year, also known as Hijri New Year, is the first day of Muharram, the first month in the Islamic lunar calendar. The word 'Muharram' itself comes from 'haram', meaning 'forbidden', indicating the sanctity of this holy month. This period holds deep importance for Muslims worldwide. The first ten days are especially significant as they honour the sacrifice of Imam Hussain (RA)—the grandson of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)—who was martyred in the Battle of Karbala.
