August 1 will mark the start of the Islamic Calendar 2023, commonly known as the Hijri Calendar, and July 21 will mark its conclusion. This Islamic lunar calendar is based on the new moon's appearance, which ushers in each month. On August 23, 2022, the first day of Muharram 1, 1444 AH, the Islamic New Year will start. There will be twelve months in this calendar year: Muharram, Safar, Rabi al-Awwal, Rabi al-Thani, Jumada al-Ula, Jumada al-Akhira, Rajab, Sha'aban, Ramadan, Shawwal, Dhu al-Qi'dah, and Dhu al-Hijjah. The months of the
islamic calendar are not synchronised with the Gregorian calendar because the Islamic calendar is shorter than the Gregorian calendar.
