Introduction
The Islamic month of Muharram is revered by millions across the globe as one of the four sacred months appointed by Almighty Allah. It marks the beginning of the Islamic lunar calendar and carries within its span moments of deep spiritual reflection, historical significance, and divine wisdom. However, beyond the outward mourning and rituals, very few understand the real spiritual essence of Muharram.
Jagatguru Tatvdarshi Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj, with evidence from all holy scriptures, has unveiled the hidden divine truths about this sacred month. He explains that Muharram is not merely about sorrow, but a reminder to return to true devotion and worship the Supreme God Kabir Sahib Ji, as mentioned in the Quran and other religious texts.
This article explores the real meaning and significance of Muharram 2025, revealing the truth behind its holiness, as explained by Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj.
1. What Is Muharram? A Sacred Month in Islam
Muharram is the first month of the Hijri calendar, and one of the four sacred months mentioned in the Quran.
📖 Quran Reference – Surah At-Tawbah (9:36):
“Indeed, the number of months with Allah is twelve... of them, four are sacred.”
These four sacred months are: Dhul-Qi’dah, Dhul-Hijjah, Muharram, and Rajab.
The word Muharram itself means “forbidden” or “prohibited,” pointing to the fact that during this month, fighting and wars were prohibited in ancient times. It is seen as a time for spirituality, fasting, self-reflection, and avoiding sin.
However, Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj reveals a deeper truth—Muharram is a month that reminds humanity of the consequences of straying from true worship, and a call to return to the Supreme God Kabir Sahib.
2. When Is Muharram and Ashura in 2025?
According to astronomical predictions:
-
Muharram 1447 AH is expected to begin on the evening of Sunday, June 29, 2025
-
The day of Ashura (10th Muharram) will fall on Tuesday, July 8, 2025
Note: Dates may vary based on moon sighting in different regions.
3. Historical Context of Muharram: The Tragedy of Karbala
One of the most remembered events of Muharram is the Battle of Karbala, which occurred on the 10th day, called Ashura.
In the year 680 CE, Imam Hussain ibn Ali, the beloved grandson of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), stood against the tyrant Yazid. Despite being surrounded by thousands of enemy soldiers, denied water, and eventually martyred along with his 72 companions, Imam Hussain (RA) refused to surrender to falsehood and injustice.
This supreme sacrifice is mourned by Shia Muslims and respected by Sunni Muslims across the world.
4. Spiritual Insight by Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj: Why Did Imam Hussain Suffer?
Despite his piety, justice, and devotion, Imam Hussain (RA) suffered a brutal death. Why?
Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj explains that pious souls still suffer when they lack the correct way of worship. Worship that is not scripture-based, even if done with sincerity, cannot protect the soul from worldly suffering or grant liberation (moksha).
📖 Quran – Surah Al-An’am (6:82):
“Those who believe and do not mix their belief with wrong (false worship) – they will be secure.”
Just like Prophet Jesus was crucified despite being innocent, and like the Pandavas suffered exile despite being righteous—Imam Hussain also fell victim to spiritual ignorance, not knowing the complete path to salvation, which only a Tatvdarshi Saint can reveal.
5. What Is a Tatvdarshi Saint?
According to the Holy Gita Chapter 4 Verse 34, a true spiritual guide (Tatvdarshi Sant) is the only one who can show the correct way to attain Supreme God.
Today, Jagatguru Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj is that Tatvdarshi Saint who is giving evidence-based true spiritual knowledge from the Quran, Bible, Gita, and Guru Granth Sahib. He reveals that the Supreme God is Kabir Sahib Ji, who appears in every age to guide His souls.
6. True Meaning of Ashura – Not Just Mourning, But Awakening
Many Muslims fast on Ashura or mourn the tragedy of Karbala through processions, chest-beating, or Majlis gatherings.
However, Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj teaches that these external rituals cannot lead to salvation. They are emotional expressions, but the real tribute to Imam Hussain is to learn from his sacrifice and accept the correct way of worship revealed in the Quran and by God Himself.
“Mourning the dead is not enough; learn from their sacrifice and avoid the spiritual mistake they made.” – Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj
7. The Quran Speaks About Supreme God Kabir
Contrary to popular belief, the Holy Quran clearly mentions the Supreme God above all.
-
📖 Surah Ash-Shura 42:11 – “There is nothing like Him”
-
📖 Surah Furqan 25:58 – “Put your trust in Him Who is Ever-Living, who dies not...”
-
📖 Surah Al-Baqarah 2:186 – “When My servants ask you concerning Me, indeed I am near...”
These qualities match Kabir Sahib Ji, who appeared in Kashi (Varanasi) and gave true spiritual knowledge. He is formless, immortal, and has complete power to forgive sins and grant salvation.
8. The Only Way to Be Saved – Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj’s Teachings
Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj explains that rituals like:
-
Fasting on Ashura
-
Reciting prayers or Hadiths without understanding
-
Going on pilgrimage
...may give temporary benefits but cannot destroy accumulated sins or cut the cycle of birth and death.
Only by:
-
Taking Naam Diksha (Initiation) from a Tatvdarshi Saint
-
Chanting Satnaam and Saarnaam mantras
-
Following rules of true devotion (Sadhna)
-
Avoiding prohibited acts and false worship
...can a soul attain real peace and ultimate salvation.
9. Karbala – A Symbol of the Soul’s Inner Battle
The true meaning of Karbala is not just a physical war—it represents the spiritual battle inside every human being:
-
Between truth and falsehood
-
Between scripture-based and blind worship
-
Between the soul seeking God and the mind trapped in ignorance
Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj urges devotees to win this inner battle by accepting Supreme God Kabir Sahib Ji and the true path of bhakti.
10. How to Observe Muharram 2025 – The Right Way
Instead of just fasting and mourning, Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj recommends the following steps to truly honor Muharram:
✅ Read Spiritual Books like Gyan Ganga, Jeene Ki Rah, and Way of Living
✅ Watch Satsang on Sadhna TV daily at 7:30 PM
✅ Get Initiation (Naam Diksha) from Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj
✅ Abandon all false practices, rituals, and idol worship
✅ Chant the mantras of Supreme God Kabir Sahib Ji as directed by Guru Ji
✅ Help others learn the truth to stop the repeating sorrow of Karbala in society
Conclusion: A Divine Message Through Muharram
Muharram 2025 is not just another date on the calendar—it is a divine opportunity. A chance to stop, reflect, and walk the path of true bhakti, as per the holy scriptures and guidance of a Tatvdarshi Saint.
The blood of Imam Hussain (RA) and the pain of Karbala are not just reminders of injustice—they are alarms to awaken souls still lost in ignorance and blind faith.
By understanding the real message behind Muharram as explained by Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj, every seeker can find peace, protection, and liberation.
“The Supreme God is Kabir. His true path has now been revealed. Accept it before your Muharram becomes personal.” – Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj
