About Islamic Calendar
The Islamic calendar, also known as the Hijri calendar, is a lunar calendar that is widely used by Muslims around the world to determine religious holidays, observances, and events. It is based on the lunar cycles, specifically the phases of the moon, and consists of 12 months of either 29 or 30 days. Since the lunar year is shorter than the solar year, the Islamic calendar is approximately 11 days shorter than the Gregorian calendar, which is the most widely used civil calendar.
The Islamic calendar begins with the migration of the Islamic prophet Muhammad from Mecca to Medina in 622 CE. This event, known as the Hijra, marks the starting point of the calendar. The first month of the Islamic calendar is Muharram, and the twelfth month is Dhu al-Hijjah. The month of Ramadan, during which Muslims observe fasting from sunrise to sunset, is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and is considered highly significant.
To determine the start of a new month in the Islamic calendar, a sighting of the new moon is traditionally required. If the moon is sighted, the new month begins, and if not, the current month continues for an additional day. This method can result in slight variations in the start and end dates of Islamic months, as it depends on local sightings of the moon.
It’s important to note that the Islamic calendar is primarily used for religious purposes and determining Islamic holidays, while the Gregorian calendar is commonly used for civil matters and day-to-day activities.
