About this tool
The converter uses the Umm al-Qura calendar built into your browser, so it works offline and the dates you enter are not uploaded. In Pakistan and many other countries, Islamic months begin after a local moon sighting, so actual dates can differ by a day or two.

The Hijri calendar explained
The Hijri (Islamic) calendar is a lunar calendar of 12 months, each 29 or 30 days long. A Hijri year has about 354 days, roughly 11 days shorter than a Gregorian year, so Ramadan and Eid move about 11 days earlier each year. Year 1 AH began with the Prophet Muhammad's (peace be upon him) migration to Madinah in 622 CE.

Why the date can differ by a day
This tool uses the Umm al-Qura calendar, the official calendar of Saudi Arabia, which is calculated in advance. In Pakistan, the Ruet-e-Hilal Committee announces the start of each month after the new moon is sighted, so local dates are sometimes one day, or occasionally two, after the Umm al-Qura date. For Ramadan, Eid and other religious occasions, always follow the official announcement where you live.
Your age in Hijri years
Because Hijri years are shorter, your age in Hijri years is usually higher than your age in Gregorian years. A 33-year-old is about 34 in Hijri years. Use the "Hijri birthday & age" tab to see yours. For your exact age in years, months and days, use the Age Calculator.
