The Islamic calendar, also known as the Hijri calendar, is used by Muslims around the world to determine the dates of religious events and rituals. It consists of 12 lunar months, totaling approximately 354 or 355 days annually. Because it’s shorter than the Gregorian calendar, Islamic dates shift backward by about 10 to 11 days each year.

1st Muharram – Islamic New Year
