A few things worth knowing, whether you grew up in the faith or are visiting for the first time.
The Islamic calendar
The Hijri calendar follows the moon, so each month begins with the new crescent and the year is about eleven days shorter than the solar year. That is why Ramadan arrives earlier each year. Dates below are calculated; the start of Ramadan and the Eids is confirmed by moon sighting, and the masjid announces them.
| Occasion | Hijri date | Expected date |
