Jumada I 5

By reflecting on the life and legacy of Abbas ibn Ali, believers are inspired to stand against oppression and strive for justice in their communities. The month encourages activism, urging individuals to partake in movements that advocate for social justice and human dignity. Such responsibilities align with the principles articulated in the Quran, which advocates for the protection of the vulnerable and the upholding of justice.

Festivals, poetry recitations (Mawlid), and artistic expressions celebrating the lives of revered figures are commonplace. These cultural festivities serve as platforms for educating both the younger generation and the wider community about their rich heritage. The vibrant art forms, including calligraphy, poetry, and traditional music, reflect the enduring legacy of the Ahlul Bayt.
