About the Hijri Calendar in India

The Hijri calendar is a lunar calendar made up of twelve Islamic months. It is widely used in India to identify Islamic dates and important religious occasions, including Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha and other significant dates.

India uses India Standard Time throughout the country. For this reason, this country page uses Asia/Kolkata as its reference time zone when determining the current Gregorian date.

The corresponding Hijri date is then retrieved using the selected calendar configuration for the India page.

This page is designed specifically for India rather than displaying a visitor’s own local Hijri date.
