How did the Islamic calendar Started

The Islamic calendar, also known as the Hijri calendar, began with the migration (Hijra) of Prophet Muhammad (SAW) and his followers from Mecca to Medina in 622 CE. This event was so pivotal in Islamic history that it was chosen as the starting point for the Islamic calendar during the caliphate of Umar ibn al-Khattab, the second caliph.

Key aspects of the Islamic calendar:

  • It’s a lunar calendar consisting of 12 months based on the cycles of the moon
  • Each month begins with the sighting of the new crescent moon
  • A year contains about 354 or 355 days, making it shorter than the solar Gregorian calendar
  • The first month is Muharram, and the first year corresponds to 622 CE in the Gregorian calendar
  • The current Islamic year is 1446 AH (Anno Hegirae, “in the year of the Hijra”)

The calendar was formally established about 17 years after the Hijra occurred, when Caliph Umar recognized the need for a distinct Islamic dating system to organize administrative affairs of the expanding Islamic state.
