The reason behind the month being called Rabi’ ul-Aakhir

Dear Islamic brothers, ‘Rabi’-ul-Aakhir’ is the fourth blessed month of the Islamic year. When the Islamic months were named, ‘Rabi’ ul-Aakhir’ fell at the end of spring. Therefore, it was called ‘Rabi’ ul-Aakhir’. (Ghiyas ul-Lughaat, p. 295)

اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه, the month of Rabi’-ul-Aakhir has a special affiliation with Sayyiduna Ghaus-ul-A’zam رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه. Certainly, he is a pious bondsman of Allah, an accepted saint, in fact, the master of all the saints.

Sayyiduna Sufyan Bin ‘Uyaynah رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه has stated: عِنْدَذِکْرِ الصَّالِحِیْنَ تَنْزِلُ الرَّحْمَۃُ Translation: Mercy descends when pious people are mentioned. (Hilya-tul-Awliya, vol. 7, p. 335, Raqm 10750)

Therefore, we too shall gain the honour of attaining the mercy of Allah Almighty by remembering Sayyiduna Ghaus-ul-A’zam رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه and the good deeds that are related to the month of Rabi’-ul-Aakhir.

Let us begin with a short introduction to Sayyiduna Ghaus ul-A’zam رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه:
