About this day
Mubahala is a day of explanation more than festivity. It marks the event of the year 9 AH that identifies the Ahl al-Kisa in Quran 3:61, together with the revelation of the Verse of Wilaya, the verse of the ring given in ruku. Twelver reports differ on the exact day; this is the one the Centre keeps, with a lecture rather than a jashn.
Communities differ on this
The Centre’s congregation includes Indian, Pakistani, Irani, Hazara, Iraqi and Afghan families, and they do not all keep this on the same day. The date above is the one the Centre observes; it is not a ruling on anyone else’s.
