Hijri and Gregorian: what is the difference?
- A Hijri year has 354 or 355 days, about 11 days shorter than a Gregorian year, so Ramadan moves about 11 days earlier every year.
- About 33 Hijri years equal 32 Gregorian years.
- Saudi Arabia uses the Umm al-Qura calendar for official Hijri dates. Ramadan, Eid and Dhu al-Hijjah are confirmed by moon sighting and can differ by one day.
