1 Muharram 1456 AH
2703 days to go
Islamic New Year 2034 is expected on Tuesday, 21 March 2034 (1 Muharram 1456 AH). Dates in the Islamic calendar follow the moon, so they move about 11 days earlier each Gregorian year. The date shown here is based on the Umm Al-Qura calendar used in Saudi Arabia; in countries that rely on local moon sighting, such as Pakistan, India and Bangladesh, it may fall one day later.
The Islamic New Year begins on 1 Muharram, the first month of the Hijri calendar. The calendar counts its years from the Hijrah — the migration of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) from Makkah to Madinah in 622 CE — which is why years are written "AH" (After Hijrah).
Muharram is one of the four sacred months in Islam. The new year is a time for reflection rather than festivity for most Muslims.
