The Spiritual Significance of the Hijri New Year in the UAE

Hijri New Year 1447

As the UAE joins the Muslim world in observing the start of Hijri 1447, the air is filled with a sense of serenity, reflection, and gratitude. The Islamic New Year, which begins on the first day of Muharram, is not marked with fireworks or grand celebrations—but rather, with introspection and prayer.

For Muslims, the Hijri New Year commemorates the Prophet Muhammad’s ﷺ migration (Hijrah) from Makkah to Madinah—a journey that laid the foundation of the first Islamic society built on justice, brotherhood, and faith.

In the United Arab Emirates, this sacred occasion is recognized with a public holiday, allowing families to spend time in remembrance and reflection. Mosques across the country hold special sermons, and many people take this time to reconnect with their spiritual goals.

Wishing you a blessed and meaningful start to Hijri 1447.
