after the time of Prophet Muhammad SAW Selim a date was not fixed for
the calendar and Muslims didn't bother with it until around the fourth year of caliph
omar bin al-khattab the second caliph of Islam around the fourth year of his rule
some of his generals communicated with him and requested that their communications be dated
to give some means of determining what orders came before others etc and necessity arose so
what rocket are gathered together those leading companions of the prophet sallahu wa sallam who
he had required to stay in medina and not go out with the Muslim forces as the Ummah spread in
order to be able to benefit from consulting with them and he asked them what date should we set
and when would we begin the year some suggested using the Roman calendar it was already there
others suggested the Persian calendar yet others suggested beginning from the birth of Prophet
Muhammad sallallahu Salone after they discussed it they concluded that they would begin from the
Hydra that was the decisive point there was no special significance in the birth of the Prophet
sallallahu wasallam so they left that in fact its exact date was not known anyway so they left it
they went to what was the most significant event in the prophethood mohammed sallu asylum after
the event of Revelation itself and they chose that the year would begin with the month of al Muharram
now the months existed before as I mentioned in the previous football but they hadn't established
which would be the first month that was not established they fasted in Ramadan they made
had Jindal Haeju you know these were established practices but where would the calendar begin what
month would it begin now they didn't choose the month that the Prophet SAW said Allah made his
reign some people mistakenly think that Muharram why Muharram was chosen because that was the
month in which Hitler was made but this is not the case they chose a harem first and foremost
because it was among the sacred months Allah spoke about four of the sacred months all the
months were from Allah is decree but four of them in particular Allah declared them to be sacred
months there was an kada the ledger Muharram and Rajab three together and one by itself
also they agreed on al-haram because of the fact that it was the month which followed the
hatch hatch representing the fifth pillar the last of the pillars of Islam completed
Indonesia then the month following it seemed to them to be a good point to start the year
also it was the month following the pledge of allegiance to the Prophet SAW solemn prior to
the Hydra so they agreed on Muharram to be the first month of the year and zero
in the calendar became the hijra year of the Hedra of the prophet sallallaahu wa sallam
