Frequently Asked Questions
How the Hijri calendar relates to the Gregorian year
Unlike the Gregorian calendar, which follows the solar cycle, the Hijri calendar is based on lunar phases. It consists of 12 months and approximately 354 or 355 days.
Due to this shorter duration, Hijri dates move earlier each year in the Gregorian calendar. As a result, key Islamic months such as Ramadan and Dhul Hijjah rotate across different seasons over time, making the Hijri calendar dynamic and continuously shifting in relation to the civil calendar.
Planning around Ramadan, Eid, and moon sighting
Understanding the Hijri calendar is essential for tracking major Islamic events such as Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr, and Hajj. Since the calendar depends on moon sighting, dates may vary slightly by country and authority. For accurate planning, it is important to view Hijri calendars based on specific years and locations, ensuring precise alignment with local announcements and religious observances.
