There are 12 months in the Islamic calendar. It is called the Hijri Calendar. The months are: Muharam, Safar, Rabi Al Awal, Rabi Al Thany, Jamad Al Awal, Jamad Al Thany, Ragab, Shaban, Ramadan, Shawal, Thul Kidaa, Thul Hijaa.
Two calendars that differ from the Western Gregorian calendar are the Islamic (Hijri) calendar and the Hebrew (Jewish) calendar. The Islamic calendar is a lunar calendar consisting of 12 months, totaling about 354 days, which causes its months to shift annually with respect to the Gregorian calendar. In contrast, the Hebrew calendar is lunisolar, incorporating both lunar months and solar years, resulting in an average year length of about 354 days, with periodic leap months added to align with the solar year.
In the Ancient Egyptian Civil Calendar, the months were: Thoth, Phaopi, Athyr, Choiak, Tybi, Mechir, Phamenoth, Pharmouthi, Pachon, Payni, Epiphi and Mesore. Currently, Egypt uses the Gregorian Calendar for day-to-day activities (with the Arabic names for the months) and the Islamic Calendar for religious holidays.

Asalamu Alykum. Well, the Islamic calendar is lunar so the months shift from year to year when compared to the solar Gregorian calendar of the western world. However, this year it's apparently Muharram that begins in November. Muharram is the first month on the Islamic calendar. It is also the second most sacred month, with Ramadan being the most sacred.
Safar is the second month of Islamic calendar. It is just like other months. Superstitions associated with this month have no ground. Islam does not believe in Superstitions.
Most scholars (both Islamic and Non-Islamic) believe a lunar or luni-solar calendar was in existence in pre-Islamic Arabia, with the obvious omission of the four 'special' months.
