The Islamic calendar, also known as the Hijri calendar, is a lunar-based system used by Muslims worldwide to determine religious observances, festivals, and important events. Unlike the Gregorian calendar, which follows the solar cycle, the Islamic calendar is based on the phases of the moon, making it approximately 10-12 days shorter each year.

Key Islamic Dates in 2025

Here are the major Islamic events and their expected dates in 2025 (subject to moon sighting):

1. Islamic New Year (1447 AH) – Muharram 1

Expected: June 26, 2025 (Evening of June 25)

• Marks the beginning of the new Hijri year (1447 AH).
• A time for reflection and remembrance of the Hijrah (Prophet Muhammad's migration from Mecca to Medina).

Why is the Islamic Calendar Important?

• Religious Observances: Determines fasting, prayers, and festivals.
• Historical Significance: Based on the Hijrah, marking the beginning of the Islamic era.
• Lunar-Based System: Encourages moon sighting, fostering community unity.

Final Thoughts

The Islamic calendar 2025 brings numerous opportunities for spiritual growth, charity, and community bonding. By staying informed about these key dates, Muslims can prepare for worship, reflection, and celebration.
