Mohammedans
Mohammedan is the name used by a Torah observant category of Muslims respected as grooms (teachers) by the Ummah of Hunafā' in the family of Abraham (Ahl ul Bait) concerning the religion of Hanīfiyyah (the Law of Abraham) in accordance with Quranic traditions.
Mohammedans preserve many ancient "Shammai" practices which distinguish their Torah observance from Hillelite Jews. For example, Mohammedans do not use Umar's Hijri calendar, but a variant of the Hebrew calendar where they only insert Nasi (Nissan) as an intercaliary month after Aviv (Dhul Hijjah) but never after Adar (Dhu al-Qi'dah) before the month of Aviv. In the last days of Khislev (Sha'aban) they count down from 8 Hanukah candles to one on the run-up to Tevet (Ramadaan) and observe the first of Shevat (Shawwal) as Tu Bishvat (Eid ul-Fitr) instead of the 15th. They count the Omer from Palm Sunday, the first day of Hajj (8th Dhul Hijjah), rather than from the morning after the Passover, and so Pentecost is also always one week before Christian/Karaite Pentecost.
