    "english": "On the first night of Rabi’ al-Awwal, twelve years after the beginning of his Divine Mission, the Holy Prophet migrated from Makkah to al-Madinah, hiding in Cave Thawr. Imam Ali (a.s.) sacrificed himself to allow the Prophet safe passage, displaying his bravery, love, and loyalty. Almighty Allah immortalized this event with the verse: 'And among men is he who sells himself to seek the pleasure of Allah; and Allah is Affectionate to the servants. 2/207'\n\nOn the 1st of Rabi’ al-Awwal, it is recommended to fast, visit their holy tombs, and recite the supplicatory prayers. On the 8th of Rabi’ al-Awwal AH 260, Imam al-Hasan al-’Askari passed away, and his son, the Patron of the Age, became the twelfth Imam. The 9th of Rabi’ al-Awwal is ‘Id al-Baqr, a feast day. It is recommended to give alms, offer food, reconcile with others, give gifts to family, thank Almighty Allah, and perform acts of worship.",
    "kiswahili": "Usiku wa kwanza wa Rabi’ al-Awwal, miaka kumi na mbili baada ya kuanza kwa Utume wa Kimungu wa Mtume Mtukufu, alihama kutoka Makkah kwenda al-Madinah, akijificha katika Pango la Thawr. Imam Ali (a.s.) alijitoa ili kumruhusu Mtume kufika salama, akionesha ujasiri, upendo, na uaminifu wake. Mwenyezi Mungu aliufanya tukufu tukio hili kwa aya: 'Na miongoni mwa watu wapo wanaouza nafsi yao kwa ajili ya kupata radhi ya Allah; na Allah ni Mwenye huruma kwa wafuasi wake. 2/207'\n\nKwenye siku ya 1 ya Rabi’ al-Awwal, ni bora kufunga, kutembelea makaburi matukufu, na kusoma dua. Siku ya 8 ya Rabi’ al-Awwal AH 260, Imam al-Hasan al-’Askari alikufa, na mtoto wake, Mlinzi wa Wakati, akawa Imam wa kumi na mbili. Siku ya 9 ya Rabi’ al-Awwal ni ‘Id al-Baqr, ni siku ya sherehe. Ni bora kutoa sadaka, kutoa chakula, kusameheana, kutoa zawadi kwa familia, kumshukuru Mwenyezi Mungu, na kufanya ibada."
