جمادى الآخرة
Jumada al-Akhirah 1450 AH
The sixth month. Twelver Shia keep the martyrdom of Fatimah al-Zahra at its start and her birth on its twentieth.
Begins on Thursday 19 October 2028 and runs 30 days, to Friday 17 November 2028.
Projected from the Umm al-Qura calendar, as ActivePray reckons it. A Hijri month truly begins when the new crescent is seen, so it can open a day either side of this. Like every day of the Hijri year, each day begins at sunset the evening before.
