About this app

The Gregorian Islamic Calendar is a calendar system that combines the solar-based Gregorian calendar with the lunar-based Islamic calendar.
It is used by Muslims to determine important dates for religious observances such as Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr. The Islamic calendar is based on the cycles of the moon,
with each month beginning with the sighting of a new crescent moon. The Gregorian calendar is a solar-based calendar that is widely used in the Western world.
The combination of these two calendars helps Muslims to align their religious observances with the solar-based calendar used in their local communities.

The Gregorian Islamic Calendar is a hybrid calendar system that combines the solar-based Gregorian calendar with the lunar-based Islamic calendar.
It is primarily used by Muslims to determine the dates for important religious observances, such as Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr.
