The Islamic calendar, also known as the Hijri calendar, is a lunar calendar used by Muslims to determine the dates of religious events and observances, including Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr, and Hajj. The calendar consists of 12 months, each 29 or 30 days long, and numbers 354 or 355 days a year.
Unlike the solar-based Gregorian calendar, the Islamic calendar is lunar-based, with each month beginning with the sighting of the crescent moon.
The Prophet Muhammad introduced the Islamic calendar in the seventh century, and it is the official calendar in many Muslim-majority countries.
Saudi Arabia uses it for civil and financial purposes but uses the Gregorian for international business, and most Muslim-majority countries use both.
The twelve months of the Islamic Calendar are:
1. Muharram
2. Safar
3. Rabi al Awwal
4. Rabi al Thani
5. Jumada al Awwal
6. Jumada al Thani
7. Rajab
8. Shaban
9. Ramadan
10. Shawwal
11. Zul Qaadah
12. Zul Hijjah
