Question
Is it permissible to commemorate the martyrdom of Hadhrat Husain (Radhiyallahu anhu) on 10th Muharram every year?
Answer
The Sunnah offers absolutely no accommodation for commemoration and anniversary functions. These are practices of the kuffaar. Karbalah is commemorated and celebrated by Shiahs and Barelwi Qabar Pujaari
bid'atis. Not a single Sahaabi had commemorated. It is bid'ah. It is not permissible.
