About this day
Reports of when Sayyida Sakina (a) was born are thin, and Twelver communities do not agree on the day. One reckoning places it at the start of Rajab, another later in the month, and a major Twelver reference records no report of her exact birthday at all. The Centre carries this reckoning as an optional entry, not a confirmed 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.
