Is describing months with negative attributes such as "disorientation" and "loss" considered reviling time, which is forbidden, or does it relate to the state of people?
Days and months are subservient and managed, and it is not permissible to demand action from them or to disparage them, because disparaging them is disparaging their Creator.
The words that ask months to be gentle suggest that they are the doers, and this is incorrect.
It is more fitting for a Muslim to ask Allah for the good within them and seek refuge in Him from their evil, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, used to do upon seeing the crescent moon, saying: "O Allah, bring it forth upon us with prosperity, faith, safety, and Islam. My Lord and your Lord is Allah."
And the best guidance is the guidance of Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him.
