Ashura, observed on the 10th of Muharram (July, 5, 2025) in the Islamic calendar, holds profound significance and is considered an auspicious day. Beyond its historical and religious importance, Ashura offers therapeutic benefits that can foster personal growth, emotional healing, and community bonding.
Ashura is more than a day of remembrance; it is an opportunity for therapeutic growth and renewal. It has been narrated that it was the day on which Allah forgave our father Adam, the day on which the Ark of Nuh (Noah) came to rest on the mountain known as al-Judi after six months at sea, and the day on which Allah forgave the people of Yunus (peace be upon him and all the Prophets). Additionally, it was the day on which Allah saved Sayyiduna Musa (Moses) and his people and drowned Fir`awn (Pharaoh) and his people. Musa fasted out of gratitude to Allah and his people continued the practice after him.
May this day be of benefit for you and an alleviation from harm. May Allah grant your heart peace, expansiveness, and healing, Ameen.
Love,
