**Gorakhpur Gears Up for Muharram Observances, Starting June 27th or 28th**

**Gorakhpur, [Date – Today’s Date]** – The Islamic New Year, Muharram, is set to begin in Gorakhpur on either June 27th or 28th, marking a period of mourning and remembrance for the martyrdom of Hazrat Imam Hussain and his companions in the Battle of Karbala.

Throughout the first ten days of Muharram, several organizations in Gorakhpur will host events to commemorate this significant occasion. Maktab Islamiyat and Al-Qalam Association are organizing a poster exhibition titled “Humare Hain Hussain” (Hussain is Ours) in various localities including Turkmanpur, Jafra Bazaar, Rahmatnagar, Naurangabad, and Jamunhiya Bagh. The posters on display will be handmade by Shifa Khatoon, a student of Madrasa Raza-e-Mustafa.

“The aim of this initiative is to inspire the youth to follow the path of Hussain,” said Hafiz Rahmat Ali Nizami. Qari Muhammad Anas Razvi will deliver lectures highlighting the life of Imam Hussain and the sacrifices of the martyrs of Karbala.

Local youth will observe fasts and engage in acts of service during the ten days of Muharram, including tree planting, distribution of “Langar” (communal meals), fruits, Sharbat (sweet beverage), Lassi and Khichda. Social media will also be used to encourage charitable deeds and spread messages of compassion.

Additionally, the Gause Azam Foundation will organize Quran Khwani and Fatiha Khwani on the first of Muharram to commemorate the martyrdom of Hazrat Umar. Collective Iftar (breaking of the fast) gatherings are planned for the ninth and tenth of Muharram. The Ali Bahadur Shah Youth Committee will distribute Langar-e-Hussaini in Rahmatnagar from the fourth to the tenth of Muharram.
