It changes every year but the name of the month is Muharam. It is determined by the beginning of the new moon cycle after the month of Thul Hijja-Which is in November for the year 2010.

What do Muslims do on Christmas day to celebrate?

It's like Christmas for us. It's not our holiday to celebrate. We have our own New Year as we have a lunar calender, this means our New Year (and months) depend on the moon. So, our New Years aren't on the same day every year if you compare it to the Christian calender. In the Islamic calender they are on the same day.

Most don't. Turks, who are mostly Muslims, don't have a special celebration to do with Christmas day. Christian Turks may have special church services.
