About Islamic New Year

The Hijri calendar counts its years from the Hijrah, the Prophet Muhammad’s migration from Makkah to Madinah in 622 CE. Each year has 12 lunar months of 29 or 30 days, so it is about 11 days shorter than the solar year and its dates move through the seasons.

Muharram is the first month and one of the four sacred months named in the Quran (9:36).
