Islamic calendar 1446: Ramadan, Eid and key dates
The Hijri year 1446 AH is complete, and this page keeps its dates as recorded in the Saudi Arabia table. Ramadan began on Saturday, 1 March 2025 and lasted 29 days to Saturday, 29 March 2025, followed by Eid al-Fitr on Sunday, 30 March 2025. Pilgrims stood at Arafah on Thursday, 5 June 2025, and Eid al-Adha fell on Friday, 6 June 2025.
A finished Hijri calendar 1446 is mostly used to look things up: counting fasts to make up, matching a Hijri date on a document or contract with its Gregorian day, or finding the weekday of a family event. If the document comes from another country, compare it with that country's table in the converter.
Hijri calendar 1446 in Gregorian years
The Hijri calendar 1446 ran from Sunday, 7 July 2024 to Wednesday, 25 June 2025, across the Gregorian years 2024–2025, for 354 days. Ramadan 1446 came about 10 days earlier in the Gregorian year than Ramadan 1445 AH, the usual drift of a calendar that is shorter than the solar year. 1447 AH began on Thursday, 26 June 2025.
Umm al-Qura calendar 1446 and sighting differences
Saudi Arabia's Umm al-Qura calendar supplies the default table for this page, and it is a calculated calendar. Pakistan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Turkey and Egypt can use different sighting or calculation rules, so one Gregorian day can fall on two consecutive Hijri days depending on the country.
In the current table 3 of the 1446 AH months are official and 9 provisional. An official month has a confirmed source; a provisional month is filled from the Umm al-Qura baseline with the country's default adjustment. For religious practice, confirm the date with a local mosque or authority.

The Hijri calendar 1446 AH: frequently asked questions
When did Ramadan 1446 AH start and end?
Ramadan 1446 AH began on Saturday, 1 March 2025 in the Saudi Arabia table and its last day was Saturday, 29 March 2025, a month of 29 days, with Eid al-Fitr on Sunday, 30 March 2025. Ramadan arrived about 10 days earlier in the Gregorian year than in 1445 AH. These are the dates of the table this page follows; some countries that rely on a local sighting began or ended the fast one day later. The month table above shows the status of Ramadan: official means its start was confirmed by an official source, while "Provisional (calculated)" means it comes from calculation and no announcement was recorded. To see the date another country used, open the converter, choose that country and enter 1 Ramadan 1446 AH. These dates help when working out missed fasts to make up, checking older records, or comparing Ramadan between two consecutive years.
When were Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha in the Hijri year 1446 AH?
Eid al-Fitr 1446 AH fell on Sunday, 30 March 2025, the Day of Arafah on Thursday, 5 June 2025 and Eid al-Adha on Friday, 6 June 2025, according to the Saudi Arabia table.

The Hijri year had 354 days: 6 months of 30 days and 6 of 29 days. It began on Sunday, 7 July 2024 and ended on Wednesday, 25 June 2025.
Why are some months of 1446 AH still provisional?
