what is the Hijri calendar?
The Hijri calendar, Islamic calendar, and lunar Hijri calendar is a lunar calendar consisting of 12 months in a 354-day year.
The Hijri calendar was used to identify events in many Muslim countries (now using the Gregorian calendar) and was used by Muslims everywhere to determine the correct date for Eid al-Fitr, for Hajj, and for celebrating other Islamic holidays and occasions.
The first year of the Hijri calendar began in 622 CE, during which the Prophet’s Muhammad migration from Mecca to Medina took place.
Some Arab countries take the Hijri calendar as an official calendar to document official correspondence between official state departments.
The calendar consists of 12 lunar months, meaning that a year is approximately equal to 354 days.
Furthermore, the month in the Hijri calendar is either 29 or 30 days (because the apparent lunar cycle is equal to 29.530588 days).
Since there is an 11-day difference between the common Gregorian calendar and the Hijri calendar, the two calendars do not coincide, making conversion between the two calendars more difficult.
