For the uninitiated, Muharram is the first month of the Islamic calendar. It holds special importance for Muslims- especially Shia Muslims who mourn the death of Hussain Ibn Ali al-Hussain, the grandson of Prophet Muhammad who was killed in the battle of Karbala in 680 AD on the tenth day of Muharram. During this period, a few Shia Muslims refrain from eating non-veg and opt for simple vegetarian food.
