Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, among the questions asked by one of the brothers is a question about the month of Allah, Muharram: Is there a report of fasting this entire month? And why is it called Muharram?
Answer:
Yes, the month of Allah, Muharram, is fasted for most of its days, and no month is completed by fasting other than Ramadan. So, most of the month of Muharram is fasted. It is called Muharram because it is one of the sacred months in which Allah has forbidden fighting. Yes.
