How to use this tool

Choose Show Today to see the Gregorian date from your device and an estimated Hijri date generated by the browser’s calendar implementation.

A worked example

The Gregorian and Hijri calendars use different month lengths. Compare the two dates displayed for today; they are two representations of the same device date.

How it works & what to check

The display uses the browser’s Islamic calendar calculation. Local moon-sighting announcements may differ. It is not an official announcement of Ramadan, Eid or any religious observance.

Common questions

Why can the Hijri date differ from my local calendar?

Calculation methods, location and moon-sighting decisions can produce differences. Follow the authority relevant to your location.

Which time zone is used?

The current date comes from your device’s local time zone.

What if my browser cannot format Hijri dates?

The tool displays an explanatory message. Use a current browser with Intl calendar support.
