Hijri to Gregorian Date Converter
This Hijri–Gregorian date converter follows the official Umm al-Qura calendar adopted in Saudi Arabia and supports instant conversion in both directions for Hijri years 1300–1500 AH (roughly 1882–2077 CE). Enter a date in either calendar to get its equivalent in the other, with no page reload.
Because a Hijri year is about 11 days shorter than a Gregorian year, there is no simple fixed ratio between the two calendars. The converter therefore relies on the complete official Umm al-Qura month table instead of approximate formulas, which keeps results aligned with official calendars.
Hijri to Gregorian
The Hijri date may differ by one day depending on the moon sighting and the official announcement in your country.
