About this day
The tenth of Rajab is a celebration: the birth of Imam al-Jawad (a) in the year 195 AH. The date is fixed and not disputed in the Twelver calendars, and the Centre marks it as a jashn. Rajab moves between celebration and mourning more than once in a fortnight, so each day on the calendar carries its own mood.
