The Isra and Mi'raj (Arabic: الإسراء و 575;لمعراج, al-’Isrā’ wal-Mi‘rāğ), are the two parts of a Night Journey that, according to Islamic tradition, the Islamic prophet Muhammad took during a single nig ht around the year 621. It has been described as both a physical and spirit ual journey.[1] A brief sketch of the story is in sura (chapter) 17 Al-Isra of th e Qur'an,[ 2] and other details come from the Hadith, suppl emental writings about the life of Muhammad. In the journey, Muhammad trave ls on the steed Buraq to "the farthest mosque" where he leads other prophets in prayer. He then a scends to heav en where he speaks to God, who gives Muhammad instructions to take ba ck to the faithful regarding the details of prayer.
According to trad itions, the Journey is associated with the Lailat al Miraj, as one o f the most significant events in the Islamic calendar.[3] END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20260610T081432Z CATEGORIES:Days Until CLASS:PUBLIC ORGANIZER:DaysUntil.com SUMMARY:Mid-Sha'ban (January 23rd, 2027 at sunset) URL:http://www.DaysUntil.com/Mid-Shaban DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20270124 DURATION:P1D TRANSP:TRANSPARENT UID:DaysUntil.com-Mid-Shaban-00001448 DESCRIPTION:X-WR-CALDESC:

Ramadan (Arabic: رمضان Ramaḍān, IPA: [rɑmɑˈdˤɑːn]; variationsPersian: Ramazan) is the ninth month of t he Islamic calendar, which lasts 29 or 30 days. It is the Islamic month of fasting, in whic h participating Muslims refrain from eating, drinking, smoking and sex during daylight hours and is intended to teach Muslims about patience, spirituality, humility and submissiveness to God. Muslims fast for the sake of God (Arabic: الله, trans: Allah) and to offer mor e prayer than usual. Compared to the solar cale ndar, the dates of Ramadan vary, moving backwards by about eleven days each year depending on the moon; thus, a person will have fasted ever y day of the Gregorian calendar year in 34 years' time. Muslims believe Ram adan to be an auspicious month for the revelations of God to humankind, bei ng the month in which the first verses of the Qur'an were revea led to the Islamic prophet, Muhammad.
The w
ord Ramadan is derived from an Arabic root R-
M-Ḍ, as in words like "ramiḍa" or "ar-ramaḍ" denoting intense heat,
scorched ground and shortness of rations. Ramadan, as a name for the month
, is of Islamic origin. Prior to Islam and the exclusion of intercalary days from the Islamic calendar, the name of the
month was Natiq and the month fell in the warm season.[2] The word was thus chosen as it we
ll represented the original climate of the month and the physiological cond
itions precipitated from fasting. In the Qur'an, God proclaims that "fasting has been writt
en down (as obligatory) upon you, as it was upon those before you". Accordi
ng to a hadith
, this might refer to the Jewish practice of fasting on Yom Kippur.[3]

Jumu'ah-tul-Wida (Arabic: جمعة الودا ;ع meaning Friday of farewell, also called al-J umu'ah al-Yatimah Arabic: ا لجمعة اليتي 05;ة or orphaned Friday) occurs on the last Friday in the month of Ramadan before Eid-ul-Fitr. Some Musli ms regard this jumu'ah as the second holiest day of the month of Ramadan and one of the most important days of the year. Some Muslims spend a large part of their day on Jumu'ah-tul-Wida doing ibadah.
Chaand Raat (Bengali: চা ;ঁদ রাত , Hindi: चाँ ;द रात, Urdu: چاند را& #1578; literally, Night of the Moon) is a Hindi, Urdu and Ben gali locution used in Pakistan, India and Bangladesh for the eve of the Muslim festival of Eid ul-Fitr; it can also mean a night with a full moon.
Chaand Raat is a time of celebration when families and friends gather in open areas at the end of the last day of Ramadan to spot the new moon, which signals the arrival of the Islamic month of Shawwal and the da y of Eid. Once the moon is sighted, people wish each other Chaand Raat M ubarak ("Have a blessed night of the new moon") or Eid Mubarak ( "Blessings of the Eid day"). Women and girls decorate their hands with mehndi (henna), and people prepare desserts for the next day of Eid and do the last round of shopping .

The Hajj (Arabic: حج Ḥaǧǧ ; "pilgrimage", also spelled haj and hadj) is the pilgrimage to Mecca, Saudi Arabia. It is one of the largest pilgrimages in the world, and is the fifth pillar of Islam, a re ligious duty that must be carried out at least once in their lifetime b y every able-bodied Muslim who can afford to do so.[ 1] The Hajj is a demonstration of the solidarity of the Muslim people, and their submission to God (Allah in the Arabic language).[2]
The pilgrimage o ccurs from the 8th to 12th day of Dhu al-Hijjah, the 12th and last mont h of the Islamic calendar. Because the Islamic calendar is a lu nar calendar, eleven days shorter than the Gregorian calendar used in the Western world, the Gregorian date of the Hajj changes from year to year. I hram is the name given to the special spiritual state in which Muslims live while on the pilgrimage.
