Safar 1451 AH
The second month. In Twelver Shia practice Arbaeen, the fortieth day after Ashura, falls on its twentieth.
Begins on Wednesday 13 June 2029 and runs 30 days, to Thursday 12 July 2029.
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.
Its holy days
As each branch keeps them, from ActivePray’s calendars.
