About this day
The Centre lists the passing of Abu Talib (a) on 26 Rajab, in the year 4 BH, kept as a mourning day. Twelver communities keep different dates for it, four of them reported across the sources, and the Centre does not present its own listing as the settled one.
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.
