Muslim Calendar

A calendar is a complete schedule of the running life cycle. People set their routine life according to the calendar, which consists of 12 months in a year. In Muslim countries, they use the Islamic calendar. However, in other countries, people use the solar (Gregorian) calendar, and in some countries like China, they use their own calendar.

The Islamic calendar started at the time of the Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him). It began when the Holy Prophet migrated from Makkah to Madina, so it is also called the Hijri calendar. It has 12 months in a year, consisting of 354 or 355 days. The Muslim calendar runs on the movements of the moon. As the new moon starts, the new Islamic month starts. All of the months consist of 29 or 30 days. The names of the months of the Muslim calendar are:

  1. Muharram
  2. Safar
  3. Rabi-ul-Awwal
  4. Rabi Al-Akhar
  5. Jumada Al-Awwal
  6. Jumada Al-Akhirah
  7. Rajab
  8. Shabaan
  9. Ramadan
  10. Shawwal
  11. Dhul-Qadah
  12. Dhul-Hijjah

Each month has its own importance from the Islamic point of view. Muharram is respectable as it is the first month. Rabi-ul-Awwal is the birth month of the Holy Prophet last Prophet of Allah. The month of Ramadan is the most important for Muslims because it gives them a chance to get closer to Allah. They celebrate 1st Shawwal as their religious festival Eid-ul-Fitr as the reward of the month of Ramadan.

Dhul-Hijjah is the month of sacrifice. In this month, Muslims renew the memory of their Prophet Ibrahim (A.S.) by offering sacrifices. Muslims also perform the Hajj this month, which Allah has made once in a lifetime obligatory for those who can afford it. Thus, the Islamic Calendar plays a vital role in the lives of Muslims. Each month of the Islamic calendar has some historical significance. You can also read out in detail about each month of the Islamic calendar at UrduPoint.
