The government and Muhammadiyah have aligned their calendars, setting the fasts on 24 and 25 June 2026, while Nahdlatul Ulama's rukyatul hilal method places them a day later on 25 and 26 June 2026. The public is encouraged to follow their respective convictions without dispute.",
        "content": "<p>Muslims are reminded not to miss the sunnah fasts of Tasu\u2019a and\nAshura in the month of Muharram 1448 Hijri. The fasts, observed on the\n9th and 10th of Muharram, hold great virtue, with the Prophet Muhammad\n(peace be upon him) stating that the Ashura fast can expiate the sins of\nthe previous year. Muharram itself is one of the sacred months in Islam\nand part of the four forbidden months (asyhurul hurum), during which\nMuslims are encouraged to increase their acts of worship, including\nfasting. According to the government\u2019s determination through the\nMinistry of Religious Affairs, 1 Muharram 1448 H falls on Tuesday, 16\nJune 2026. Consequently, the Tasu\u2019a fast (9 Muharram) will be observed\non Wednesday, 24 June 2026, and the Ashura fast (10 Muharram) on\nThursday, 25 June 2026. This government decision aligns with the Global\nHijri Calendar (KHGT) guidelines compiled by the Tarjih and Tajdid\nCouncil of Muhammadiyah. Meanwhile, the Falakiyah Institute of the\nNahdlatul Ulama Executive Board (LF PBNU) has set 1 Muharram 1448 H on\nWednesday, 17 June 2026, based on rukyatul hilal (moon sighting). Under\nthis determination, the Tasu\u2019a fast falls on Thursday, 25 June 2026, and\nthe Ashura fast on Friday, 26 June 2026. The difference arises from the\nvarying methods used to determine the start of Muharram. The public is\nadvised to follow the decision they believe in and to avoid debating the\ndifferences.<\/p>",
