What this Hijri to Gregorian calculator does

The Hijri calendar is a lunar calendar used in many Islamic contexts, while the Gregorian calendar is the civil calendar used internationally. Because these systems are based on different astronomical cycles, dates do not line up directly. This tool helps you quickly convert a Hijri date into its corresponding Gregorian date.

This is useful for planning events, understanding historical dates, scheduling religious activities, and converting birth dates or anniversary dates between calendar systems.

How to use the converter

  • Enter the Hijri day (1-30).
  • Select the Hijri month from the dropdown list.
  • Enter the Hijri year (AH).
  • Click Convert Date to see the Gregorian result.

The result displays the Gregorian date in a readable format, including the day of the week.

Why conversion can vary by one day

For everyday planning this is usually fine, but for legal or religious decisions always verify with local authorities.
