Safar ul Muzaffar ki Fazilat aur Haqeeqat

Safar Ul Muzaffar ki Fazilat aur Haqeeqat

Sadrush Sharia Hazrat Allama Maulana Mufti Mohammad Amjad Ali Aazmi Rehmatullah Alaih Bahar e Shariat, Jild. 3 ke Aadab Safar ke bayaan mein farmate hain:

Maah e Safar ko log manhoos jaante hain, ismein shaadi biyaah nahi karte, ladkiyon ko rukhsat nahi karte. Aur bhi iss qism ke kaam karne se parhez karte hain. Safar karne se  gurez karte hain. Khoosusan Maah e Safar ki ibtedayi tera (13) taareekh bohat zyada nehas maani jaati hai aur unko tera teeji kehte hain. Yeh sab jahaalat ki baatein hain.

Hadees mein farmaya ke

"Safar koi cheez nahi"

Yaani logon ka ise manhoos samajhna galat hai. Isi tarah zill-qad ke mahine ko bhi bohat log bura jaante hain aur usko khaali ka mahina bhi kehte hain, yeh bhi ghalat hai. Har maah (month) ke 3, 13, 23 aur 8, 18, 28 ko manhoos jaante hain, yeh bhi laghobaat hai.

Maah e Safar ka aakhri chaar-shumba (wednesday) hindustan mein bohat manaya jaata hai. Log apne kaarobaar band kar dete hain. Ser o tafreeh wa sheekar ko jaate hain. Pooriyan pakti hain. Nahaate dote hain. Khooshiyan manate hain aur kehte yeh hai ke HUZOOR E AQDAS Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam iss roz ghusl sehet farmaya tha aur bairoon Madina Taiba ser ke liye tashreef le gaye the. Yeh sab baatein be-asl hain. Balke in dini mein HUZOOR E AKRAM Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ka marz shiddat ke saath tha. Woh baatein khilaaf waqai hain. Aur baaz log yeh kehte hain ke iss roz balayen aati hai aur tarah tarah ki baatein bayaan ki jaati hai. Sab be-saboot hai. Balke Hadees ka yeh irshaad "la-seefar" yaani seefar koi chiz nahi. Aisi tamaam khuraafaat ko radd karta hai.

Safar al-Muzaffar Fazilat aur Barakat

Safar al-Muzaffar (Safar ul Muzaffar) Fazilat aur Barakat - Importance and Virtues of Islamic Month of Safar

Safar al-Muzaffar is the second month of the Islamic calendar. 

Literal meaning of Safar is empty. During this month the houses used to be empty and deserted because the ban on going to war in the month of Muharram came to an end and everyone proceeded towards the battlefield.

Safar also means to be yellow. When the names of the months were being given it was the season of autumn and the leaves of the trees were yellow.

Many people have erroneous beliefs regarding this month i.e. it is a month of misfortune and calamities. The teachings of Allah Ta'ala and His Most Beloved Rasool (SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam) gives us clear guidelines on such incorrect beliefs.

Today too, there are some Muslims who hold incorrect beliefs regarding the month of Safar.

1. A nikah performed in this month would not be successful.
2. This month is full of misfortune and calamities.
3. To commence any important venture, business etc. during this month will bring bad luck.
4. The first to the thirteenth of Safar is ill-fortune and evil.
5. The person who distributes food or money on the 13th of Safar will be saved from its ill-fortune.

6. To celebrate the last Wednesday of Safar and regard it as a holiday.

Many people have erroneous beliefs regarding this month i.e. it is a month of misfortune and calamities. The teachings of Allah Ta'ala and His Most Beloved Rasool (SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam) gives us clear guidelines on such incorrect beliefs.

Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) says in the Qur'an al-Kareem:

ما أصاب من مصيبة إلا بإذن الله
"No misfortune befalls except by Allah’s command..." [Surah Tagabun, Verse 11]

These erroneous beliefs have also been condemned in the context of the following Ahadith:

لا عدوى ولا طيرة ولا هامة ولاصفر
There is no superstitious owl, bird, no star-promising rain, no bad omen in the month of Safar. [Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 5707]

لا عدوى ولا صفر ولا غول
There is no bad omen in the month of Safar and no Ghouls (evil spirits). [Sahih Muslim, Hadith 2222]


The above Ahadith clearly refutes all incorrect beliefs and superstitions regarding the month of Safar. These incorrect beliefs flow from the pre-Islamic period of Jahiliyyah .

Important Things to do in Month of Safar al-Muzaffar

1. To shun all types of erroneous beliefs regarding the blessed month of Safar.

2. To understand that the most unfortunate person is he who disobeys Allah Ta'ala's commandments e.g. does not perform the five daily salaah etc. It is narrated in a hadith that Rasoolullah (SallAllaho Alaihi wa Sallam) said: "Pray, 0 Allah! Cause not anyone of us to be a wretched destitute." He then asked: "Do you know who is a wretched destitute?" Upon the request of the Sahabah (Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhum) he replied, "A wretched destitute is he who neglects his salaat."

3. We should understand that all conditions which befalls us, good or bad, favourable, or unfavourable are from Allah Ta'ala, (as a result of our actions). Allah Ta'ala says: " Whatever misfortune befalls you, it is due to the things your hands have wrought, and He forgives many a sin." (Surah 42 - Verse 30).

This can also be confirmed by the following Hadith:


Sayyadina Jabir (Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu) has said that, "I have heard Sayyadina Rasoolullah (SallAllaho Alaihi wa Sallam) saying, the descending of illness and evil superstition befalling in the month of Safar is untrue."
