The Islamic Calendar (Arabic Calendar)

The Hijri calendar: a lunar system

The Islamic calendar (Hijri, Arabic lunar calendar) follows the moon; the Gregorian year follows the sun. It starts from the Hijrah. A month opens when the new crescent is sighted. Dates on this 2030 grid are estimates — moon sighting can move a day.

Structure and months

Twelve months, about 354–355 days: Muharram, Safar, Rabiʿ al-awwal, Rabiʿ al-thani, Jumada al-ula, Jumada al-akhirah, Rajab, Shaʿban, Ramadan, Shawwal, Dhul-Qaʿdah, Dhul-Hijjah. Namaz Buddy puts Gregorian and Hijri on the same cell. The converter uses that engine.

Sacred months

Four months are sacred: Dhul-Qaʿdah, Dhul-Hijjah and Muharram in a row, then Rajab. They are named in Bukhari (3197). The old rule was to halt war; today they are still marked for worship and travel.
