NEW YEARS ….. NEW BEGINNINGS….. AND NEW RESOLUTIONS……
As Malaysians we have much to be thankful for. We have been blessed with the ability to experience the dawning of the New Year. The months of December (2008) and January (2009) have been very meaningful to us Malaysians. For the Muslims, the first month of the Islamic calendar year is Muharram and the first day of Muharram was celebrated on Dec. 29th 2008. The Islamic year is counted from the year of the Hijrah, that in which the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) immigrated from Makkah to Medina (AD July 16, 622). Hijrah means migration and our beloved Prophet’s (s.a.w) migration to Medina was under the command from Allah (s.w.t).
