About the dates shown: the Hijri-to-Gregorian conversion comes from Aladhan, the same trusted, widely-used calendar service this site's Prayer Times tool uses. Significant-date markings follow commonly-cited Shia commemorations by Hijri month and day, which repeat on the same Hijri date every year — actual moon-sighting can shift the Gregorian date by a day in either direction depending on your region and local religious authority.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why might the date shown differ by a day from my local mosque or community?

The Hijri calendar is based on the visible new moon, and different regions/religious authorities sometimes confirm the new moon a day apart from each other. This calendar uses a standard astronomical calculation from a trusted calendar service, which is very close to — but not always identical to — local moon-sighting announcements.

Where do the significant dates come from?

They're well-established, commonly-cited Shia commemorations (Ashura on 10 Muharram, Arbaeen on 20 Safar, Eid al-Ghadeer on 18 Dhul Hijjah, and others) that fall on the same Hijri month and day every year — not sourced from an API, since these are fixed points in the Islamic calendar, but the Hijri-to-Gregorian date conversion itself comes from Aladhan.

Can I see other months?

Yes — use the arrows on either side of the month name to move to the previous or next Hijri month.
