 Safar 2013
1435
Dec/Jan
Meaning: This word means "whistling of the wind". When this name
was assigned to this month, it was probably a windy time of the year. Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday
As mentioned earlier, most of the months were named according to
weather conditions at the time. However, since they are based on the
moon, the months shift about 11 days every year. So, the seasons do
1 2 3 4
not necessarily correspond to the name of the month anymore.

Misconception:This time of the year was considered to be cursed as

many catastrophes and calamities took place. However this belief 4th Dec 5 6 7
has been proven to be false and totally without foundation (absurd). 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

This can also be confirmed by the following hadeeth.

Hadhrat Jaabir (R.A.) has said that, "I have heard the
8 9 10 11 12 13 14
Prophet saying, the descending of illness and evil superstition
12 13 14 15 16 17 18
befalling in the month of Safar is untrue." (Muslim)
