Muharram

  Eight month of the Islamic Calendar.
Meaning: Consecutively escalating.  (Undisturbed increase).  Derived from the word “shu’ba”, which means branch.  The Arabs used to branch out during this month to look for water.
Blessings:
With the Arrival of the Shaban moon numerous blessings are showered upon us.  Just as the initiation of rainfall begins with “pitter patter” such blessings reach us in the same accord and fashion.
With the Beginning of Shaban blessings are initiated which progressively escalate so that by mid-Shaban the blessings have reached a considerable amount and finally such blessings reached a considerable amount and finally such blessings reach their peak by the end of Ramadan.
For example just as a farmer prepares for a fruitful harvest by harrowing his acreage so that the soil may readily retain water, in contrast our souls are geared by the presence of such blessings in Shaban effectively preparing us for a fruitful and completely advantageous Ramadan.
Our Holy Prophet  has said, “Shaban is my month and Ramadan the month of Allah Ta’aalaa.” (Daylami)
