The Hijrah calendar presented below is based on
the concept of Conjunction. Conjunction occurs
when the Moon is between the Sun and the Earth
and the centers of the Sun, Moon and Earth are in
one straight line. The Conjunction marks the end
of the Hijrah month. The next Hijrah month
commences on the next DAY of the Conjunction
DAY. For example, if the Conjunction occurred on
Thursday, the next month begins on Friday. It is
important to note that, for the commencement of
the new month the time of Conjunction is not
the criterion and should not be applied. This is
important as the calculation of the time of the
day is totally and independently governed by the
rotation of the Earth and the consequent apparent
position of the sun in relation to a particular
spot on Earth. To simplify, an observer on Earth
divides his day and sets his clock on the basis
of the Sun in relation to his Meridian.
Conjunction dates and times (UT) are tabulated in
Nautical Almanacs and websites for the entire
year or years in advance.
Hijrah Calendar 1430 H
In the calendar below the Day of Conjunction is
used for the purpose of termination of the
current Hijrah month. The Universal Time (UT) of
Conjunction is used to calculate the Ground
Position (GP) of the moon at the time of
Conjunction.

Ground Position (GP) of the Moon The Ground
Position (GP) can be defined as the point on the
surface of the Earth through which a line joining
the center of the Earth and the center of the
Moon passes. For every Conjunction, the Ground
Position (GP) on the world map is marked by a
green arrow and the exact Ground Position (GP) by
Latitude and Longitude is mentioned in the text
below the map in red.
If at the time of Conjunction, an observer is
situated at the Ground Position (GP) of the Moon
he is in line with the center of the Earth and
the center of the Moon and the center of the Sun,
or in other words the Sun and the Moon are right
over his head. In case the observer looks at the
Sun through a coloured shade he may be able to
spot the Moon in the fore front. This is because
the Earth is out side the Umbra. At any
particular Conjunction when the Earth is within
the Umbra i.e. at the time of Solar Eclipse, the
observer will be at the darkest spot of the
Eclipse.

The Map The purpose of the map is to
demonstrate that over the 12 months of the lunar
(Hijrah) year, Conjunction can appear at any spot
and is thus, applicable world wide as there is
only one Conjunction in a lunar (Hijrah) month.
Moon Phases The various phases of the Moon
along with the Hijrah month dates are just for
the purpose of demonstrating the waxing and the
waning cycle of the moon in a Hijrah month. It
shows a regular pattern which is typical for a 29
day month and also typical for 30 day month at a
particular location on the Earth.Please note,
the shape of these phases will not be applicable
world wide as each place will have its own
pattern. Brother Ali Manikfan has been making
observations for the last 40 years from South
India and the Maldives Islands and by looking at
the Moon on a particular day is able not only to
advise on the date of that particular Hijrah
month but also is able to indicate if that
particular month will be a 29 day month or 30 day
month.
It will be interesting to note that this
phenomenon and this regular phase pattern is only
possible for a Hijrah Calendar as this is the
only lunar calendar which has remained unchanged
since its inception. I would like to offer my
sincere gratitude to Brother Ali Manikfan, my
teacher for the inspiration and guidance provided
through his website Hijrahcalendar.com. The
information, which he has conveyed through his
website is unique and eye-opening.

I must convey my sincere thanks to Br.
Abdullateef who actually introduced Br. Manikfan
and the Conjunction concept to me. I wish I had
met Br. Abdullateef much earlier. Last but not
the least I must thank Br. Khalid Shaukat for his
painstaking efforts on the moonsighting.com
site. Besides providing unique crescent
visibility diagrams, the site also contains much
more valuable information.My colleagues Syed
Mutaharuddin Haqqani, Hani Al Sangedy and Mohamed
Zia Ul Haq must be congratulated for their
sincere efforts and assistance in the production
of this calendar. I will be grateful to the
readers and viewers for their comments and
corrections of errors/omissions if any.
May Allah be kind to us all. Wassalam Capt
