THE EVENT

Muharram is the first month of the Islamic calendar. It is one of the four sacred months of the year. Since the Islamic calendar is a lunar calendar, Muharram moves from year to year when compared with the Gregorian calendar.

The word "Muharram" means "Forbidden" and is derived from the word harām, meaning "sinful". It is held to be the most sacred of all the months, excluding Ramadan. Some Muslims fastduring these days. The tenth day of Muharram is the Day of Ashura, which to Shia Muslims is part of the Mourning of Muharram.

Some Muslims fast during this day, because it is recorded in the hadith that Musa (Moses) and his people obtained a victory over the Egyptian Pharaoh on the 10th day of Muharram; accordingly Muhammad asked Muslims to pray on this day that is Ashura and on a day before that is 9th (called Tasu`a).Fasting differs among the Muslim groupings.

SOFT SKILLS DEVELOPMENT IN WORK PLACE

Soft Skills, like team building, is one of the key terms widely discussed among the workplace environments.

Leadership: Leaders are those who drive an organization’s growth as they are the ones who get the work done in a given time.

Socializing with peers:

Workplace or career success is not the only thing which defines an individual’s achievements. Socializing with others is much needed for every individual as it helps connect with persons personally, understand each other better and of course eases off stress and frictions as well.

Capability to convince:

It would be better to say that soft skills

better an individual’s capability to convince rather than market. Businesses of all kind need to communicate with their customers or target audiences at some point of time either directly or indirectly.
