Allah.” (Tafseer Ibn Katheer (can also Allah have mercy on him), remark on Soorat at-Tawbah verse 36)

distinctive feature of fasting in Muharram
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be thrilled with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (advantages and peace of Allah be upon him) stated: “The satisfactory rapid after Ramadan is within the month of Allah Muharram.” (Narrated via Muslim, 1982)


The word “the month of Allah (shahr Allah)” is indicative of the veneration this month deserves, as it's far attributed to Allah (in a genitive or idaafah word). Al-Qaari said: What seems to be the case is that what is supposed is the entire month of Muharram.

but the Prophet (advantages and peace of Allah be upon him) in no way fasted any month in full aside from Ramadan. So this hadeeth is to be understood as that means that it's far encouraged to speedy a first rate deal during the month of Muharram, not to speedy the whole month.

The Prophet (advantages and peace of Allah be upon him) fasted a extraordinary deal at some stage in Sha‘baan, and perhaps the distinctive feature of Muharram changed into no longer found out to him until the quit of his life, earlier than he was able to fast in the course of this month.

Allah chooses something He wills of instances and locations
Al-‘Izz ibn ‘Abd as-Salaam (may Allah have mercy on him) stated: “Superiority of instances and locations is of two sorts, the primary of that's in worldly terms and the second one is in spiritual or non secular terms because of what Allah bestows upon His slaves at those instances and in those places of a extra reward for deeds, along with the greater distinctive feature of fasting Ramadan over fasting in different months or on the day of ‘Ashoora’. Its virtue is due to Allah’s generosity and kindness to His slaves all through it.” (Qawaa‘id al-Ahkaam, 1/38)
