Questions on Muharram

Muharram

Can you explain your view on Muharram please. TVs show we should pay respect to the Prophet SAW household as they were trying to save islam.

What are views in regard to this? Do the Ahle Sunnath respect his family or not? Should we follow muharram or not? Should we not pay respect to the daughter of the Prophet SAW and his grandsons/granddaughters?

I am interested in learning more about how we the ahle sunnath view muharram and the household of he prophet.

Thank you.

Ruling on celebrating ‘Aashooraa’ or taking it as a day of mourning

What is the ruling on what people do on the day of ‘Aashooraa’, such as wearing kohl, taking a bath (ghusl), using henna, shaking hands with one another, cooking grains (huboob), showing their happiness and so on…? Has any saheeh hadeeth to that effect been narrated from the Prophet peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) or not? If there is no saheeh hadeeth to that effect, does doing these things constitute bid’ah, or not? What about the things that the other people do, such as mourning, grieving, going without anything to drink, eulogizing, wailing, rending their garments, etc.? Is there any basis for that or not?
