ISLAMIC NEW YEAR - 1440 AL HIJRI CALENDAR

1440-al-Hijri

The Hijri calendar (Islamic or Muslim calendar), is a lunar calendar consisting of 12 months in a year of 354 or 355 days. It is used to date events in many Muslim countries. It is also used by Muslims to determine the proper days of Islamic holidays and rituals, eg festivals, the fasting of Ramadan, etc.

Islamic time reckoning begins in 622 CE when the HOLY PROPHET Muhammad (SWS) migrated to Medina. This event is referred to as Hegira or Hijrah, accounting for the name Hijri calendar.

In parallel with the letters AD (Anno Domini) used in the Christian calendar, years in the Islamic calendar are designated either H for Hijrah or AH, which stands for the Latin term Anno Hegirae or in Arabic Al-Hijrah.

The Islamic calendar has 12 months with 29 or 30 days. If the Crescent Moon is visible shortly after sunset on the evening of day 29, the following day is the first day of the new month. If no sighting is made, a 30th day is added to the current month, which is then followed by the first day of the subsequent month.

The months of Rajab, Ramdan, Dhū al-Qa‘dah, Dhu al-Ḥijjah, and Muḥarram are considered sacred

The Persian and Islamic calendar systems are otherwise unrelated. The former is a solar calendar, so its year count differs substantially from that of the Islamic lunar calendar. 

1439 AH ends on 10th of September 2018 and New Islamic Hijri Calendar ie. 1440 AH starts in the evening of 11th September 2018 in India.

Let us reminisce about Hijrah, the great milestone in the Islamic cause.

Let us remember Umar’s adoption of Hijrah as the beginning of the Islamic calendar.

And let us remember that the real Hijrah today is to emigrate from the evil that is forbidden from Allah and His Messenger.
