No, I haven't lost the plot. Tomorrow is the first day of the year 1434 in the Islamic calendar.

With the sighting of the new moon the Islamic new year is ushered in. The first month Muharram, is a month of great reward and virtue.
From out of the four sacred months, Muharram has been blessed with certain specific virtues:-
The Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu-Alayhi-Wasallam) said:
"The best of fasts besides the month of Ramadhan is the fasting of Allah's month of Muharram."
(Muslim)
