Special events on 10th Muharam

God created Prophet Adam.
God sent Adam to Heaven.
Prophet Noah landed on mount. Judi.
Prophet Ibrahim was saved from the fire set by the infidels.
Prophet Yunus released from inside of the fish (Nun)
Prophet Ayob was cured from his skin disease which he suffered for many years.
Prophet Yusoff was saved from the dried well where his brothers left him.
Prophet Ya'acob was cured from his blindness.
Prophet Musa fasted for 40 days and meditated to God at mount. Tursina and had his first meeting with God.
Prophet Musa divided the Red Sea with his walking stick to pave a way to escape from the Firaun and his solders.

To commemorate these special occasions, some devoted Muslims all over the world fast on this auspicious day. But to be different from the Jews who also fast on this auspicious day to remember the occasion where Prophet Musa was saved from the Firaun, Muslims fast for 2 days, that is the 9 and 10th or 10th and 11th.
