About this day
The Centre's calendar places the birth of Imam al-Hasan al-Askari (a) in 232 AH on the tenth of Rabi al-Thani, following al-Shaykh al-Mufid in Masar al-Shia. That is a classical position rather than a local custom, but it is not the only one: other Twelver communities keep the eighth, and both dates appear on the calendar. The day is marked as a jashn.
Communities differ on this
Families at the Centre 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.
