MuharramMuharram is the first month of the Islamic calendar. Since the Islamic calendar is lunar, Muharram moves from year to year when compared to the Gregorian calendar. The first day of Muharram is often celebrated in Sunni Muslim countries as the Islamic new year, while it starts a ten-day mourning period, called the Festival of Muharram, for Shi'a Muslims.
