The Bahá’i Intercalary Days
The Intercalary Days (or Ayyám-i-Há, meaning “Days of Ha”) are the days of preparation before the Bahá’i Fast (March 1-19); these are days of hospitality, enjoyment, gift-giving, charity, and paying special attention to the needs of others, our communities and the world.

About the Days of Ha:
A delightful, happy time of the year during which we demonstrate how we love, cherish and care for all of humanity, how we strive every day to know and to love God and therefore, love life itself.
