Is the month of Safar unlucky?

Safar – Month of success and victories

This month of Safar has proven to be a month of extraordinary success and victories for Muslims and Islam.  This was the month, which had the Conquest of Makkah concealed in it.  In a way, the Hijrah in Safar became the reason of propagation of Islam.  That is why, normally Safar is referred to as “Safar-e-Muzaffar,” Lit. Safar, the one of victory.

Muslims should strictly refrain from entertaining such superstitions.  In the same way, keeping eggs, oil, etc. in the name of “Tera Tezi” is also a useless act.  Staying away from these things is also necessary.  If someone wants to give charity, Sadqa, etc. to please Almighty Allah , then like in other months, it is permissible and is an established Sunnah.

Some people believe that on the last Wednesday of Safar, we should go on picnics and walk on green grass, etc.  If this walking is done to remove difficulties (!), then there is no concept of this in the canons of Islam.  If you think that on the last Wednesday, difficulties descend, then in this case, instead of picnics, etc. you should pray and worship Almighty Allah and give charity, as it removes the wrath of Almighty Allah and the approval of Almighty Allah is gained as mentioned in this Hadith of Jame’ Tirmidhi:

Translation: It is narrated on the authority of Hadhrat Anas bin Malik (May Allah be well pleased with him), he says:  The Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) said:  Verily charity and good deeds calms the wrath of Allah and drive away a bad death.  (Jame’ Tirmidhi, Hadith No. 666; Shua’bul Iman, Hadith No. 3202)
