About this tool

Hijri Date Converter is a two-way bridge between the Gregorian calendar and the Hijri (Islamic) lunar calendar. It uses the Tabular Islamic Calendar (Kuwaiti algorithm, type IIc), the same arithmetic calendar that powers the .NET HijriCalendar and the ICU islamic-civil locale. Pick a Gregorian date and read the matching Hijri date instantly, or enter a Hijri year, month, and day and get the matching Gregorian date back, plus the weekday in English and Arabic, the Julian Day Number, whether the Hijri year is a leap year (11 out of every 30), and how many days the chosen Hijri month contains. Each Hijri month is shown with its English name, Arabic name, and traditional meaning, so the result is useful for historical research, document timestamps, calendar planning, baby age conversions, and Islamic month reference. Because the Tabular Islamic Calendar is a purely mathematical approximation of crescent moon sightings, the result for any given day can differ by one or two days from the Umm al-Qura calendar published in Saudi Arabia or from local moon-sighting committees elsewhere. The tool flags this explicitly so the difference between the calendrical date and the religiously observed date is never hidden. Every conversion runs in your browser; the date you enter never leaves your device.
