About the Hijri Calendar (Hijri Calendar ke Mutaliq)
The Hijri calendar, also known as the Islamic calendar, is a lunar calendar consisting of 12 months in a year of 354 or 355 days. It is used to determine the proper days of Islamic holidays and rituals, such as the annual period of fasting and the proper time for the Hajj pilgrimage. The calendar’s starting point is the Hijra, the migration of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) from Makkah to Madinah in 622 AD.
