The All India Muslim League (AIML) was formally established in Dhaka on the 30th of December 1906. The choice of Aligarh as the League’s first headquarters was mainly due to its pivotal role in the educational and political upliftment of Muslims in the country. The formation of the League was initiated by Nawab Salimullah of Dhaka, Rana Yashwant Singh of Satara, and other prominent leaders, while its first president was Aga Khan III.The main aims of the League were to encourage Muslim loyalty toward the British government, to protect the political rights of Muslims in India, andto prevent the development of unfriendly sentiments among communities. This early stage of the League based in Aligarh showed the Aligarh Movement’s impact; however, the main office was finally changed to Lucknow in 1910 in order to expand the party’s political reach throughout the subcontinent.

- (A) Muharram
- (B) Saffar
- (C) Rabi-ul-Awwal

Hazrat Umar’s (R.A) martyrdom took place on the very first day of Muharram, 24 AH, although the attack on his life happened a few days earlier. The story goes that Abu Lulu Feroze inflicted a mortal stab wound upon him when he was leading the Fajr prayer at the end of Dhu al-Hijjah, and it was only after three days that he died from the injuries, which incidentally coincided with the beginning of the new Islamic year. Since his death was right on the edge of the calendar change, it is most generally celebrated on the first day of Muharram.
