Islamic Months and their Wazaifs!

Islamic calendar or Muslim calendar also called the Hijri calendar is the calendar used to date events in many predominantly Muslim countries, and used by Muslims everywhere to determine the proper day on which to celebrate Islamic holy days or other Islamic Occasions. Islamic calendar or Muslim calendar is based on the Glorious Quran and its proper observance is a sacred duty for Muslims.
Four months are considered haram or sacred; Muharram, Rajab, Dhu al-Qi'dah, and Dhu al-Hijjah. Of all the months in the Islamic calendar, Ramadan is the most venerated. Muslims are required to abstain from eating, drinking any liquid, and sexual intercourse during the daylight hours of this month.
 
 
  1] Muharram 5] Jumaada Awal 9] Ramadan
  2] Safar 6] Jumaada Sani 10] Shawwal
  3] Rabia Awal 7] Rajab 11] Zeqad
  4] Rabia Sani 8] Shabaan 12] Zil-Haj
 
 
 
Of all the months in the Islamic calendar, Ramadan is the most sacred, during the daytime of which no Muslim may eat food or drink liquid, except for those who are ill or traveling, who must make up the days missed later. Daytime begins at dawn, traditionally when a white thread can be distinguished from a black thread, but now often equated with astronomical dawn, which occurs when the center of the sun is 18° below the eastern geometric horizon. It ends at sunset, when the entire disk of the sun has gone below the actual western horizon, even if substantially elevated above the ideal horizon by mountains.
