Islamic Calendar 2025

The Islamic Calendar is important for Muslims because it helps them remember important dates based on the moon. This calendar has 12 months, and each month can be 29 or 30 days, depending on the moon. Two of the most important months are Ramadan and Dhul-Hijjah. During Ramadan, Muslims fast and pray a lot, and it ends with a big celebration called Eid-ul-Fitr. Dhul-Hijjah includes the Hajj pilgrimage, which leads up to another big festival called Eid al-Adha.

The Islamic year for 2025 starts with the month called Muharram. Important times like Ramadan and the Eids are based on seeing the moon in each place. The Islamic year is shorter than the regular (Gregorian) year by about 10 to 12 days, so these special days come a bit earlier each year. This helps Muslims plan their religious activities and feel more connected to their faith and culture.
