The Islamic calendar 2018
is based on the moon. Also known as the Hijri
Calendar 2018, it started after the hijrah of the Prophet (PBUH) to Madina. The
beginning of each month is contingent on the visibility of the moon at the end
of the previous month. Once the moon is sighted, the new month commences. Each
month starts with a new lunar cycle. Hence, the Muslim Calendar 2018 gives only a tentative overview of the upcoming
Islamic dates as the start of each month is subject to the sighting of the
moon.
The Islamic calendar consists of 12 months similar to the Gregorian calendar. However it consists
of 354-355 days unlike the 365-366 days in the regular calendar. The Islamic New Year starts off with Muharram
followed by Safar, Rabi al-awwal, Rabi al-thani, Jumada al-awwal, Jumada
al-thani, Rajab, Shaban, Ramadan, Shawwal, Dhul Qadah and Dhul Hijja.
Waging war during four
of these months is forbidden as they are considered sacred.
“The year is of twelve months, out of which four months
are sacred: Three are in succession Dhul-Qa’ da, Dhul-Hijja and Muharram, and
(the fourth is) Rajab…” (Bukhari
3197)
