صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
Dear Islamic brothers! Remember! Any time can be blessed and of great excellence such as the month of Ramadan, Rabi’-ul-Awwal, blessed Friday, etc., but no month or day can be ill-omened. Mufti Ahmad Yar Khan رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْهhas said: In Islam, there is no day or moment ill-omened. However, some days are holy. (Mirat-ul-Manajih, vol. 5, pp. 484)
اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـهعَزَّوَجَلَّ! Safar-ul-Muzaffar is also a holy month like other months.

(Al-Kamil fit-Tareekh, vol. 2, pp. 109)
Mada`in (in which was the palace of Kisra - Cyrus) was also conquered in 16thHijri, in the month of Safar-ul-Muzaffar. (Al-Kamil fit-Tareekh, vol. 2, pp. 357)
But unfortunately, as the holy month of Safar-ul-Muzaffar comes, the unwise superstitious people, the victims of ill omen, start spreading different kinds of messages of misconceptions. This month is considered to be extremely unlucky by considering it that it is the month in which evils and troubles descend. Therefore the Niyaz of Kabuli Chana (chickpea) is given or balls of kneaded flour are put into the sea. The last Wednesday, in particular, of this month is
