The Islamic calendar is made up of 12 months, the sixth of which is called Jumada al-Thani (also known as Jumada al-Akhir). Though not the most significant month, several important events took place during Jumada al-Thani which are important to Muslims of all sects.
Jumada Al-Awwal is the fifth month in the Islamic calendar and signals the beginning of the summer season. “Jamad” itself means “dry or rainless”; however, since the Islamic calendar follows the lunar calendar, Jumada Al-Awwal will occur in winter this year.
Rajab is the seventh month of the Islamic calendar. It is one of the four sacred months designated by Allah (SWT), making it of special significance along with Dhul al-Qadah, Dhul Hijjah, and Muharram. There are many blessings to be sought in Rajab, but it is an incredibly religious time as several key events took place during this month, too.
