Islamic Calendar 2019 - Prayer Time & Events For Android
Islamic Calendar 2019 is a mobile app that lets Muslims know the important days in the Islamic year. It features a Qibla compass to find the direction of Kaab and displays the current date in both Gregorian and Hijri formats. It also has beautiful widgets to help Muslims stay organized and on track with the religious calendar.
The Islamic calendar differs from the Gregorian calendar in several ways. It has a monthly length of 29 or 30 days, and the start and end dates are determined according to a different set of conventions. The length of each month is different, varying with the visibility of the moon, the position of the earth, and weather conditions.
The ninth month of the Islamic calendar, Ramadan, is one of the holiest months in Islam. Fasting and prayer are the main requirements of this holy month. Muslims believe that the first verses of the Quran were revealed to the Prophet Muhammad during this month. This is why the Muslim community places extra emphasis on reciting the Qu'ran during this time.
The crescent that marks the start of a new Islamic month will most likely be visible in the UAE and other parts of the world on August 31. This date falls on Sunday, September 1. Official announcement will be made on August 30.
