Islamic Calendar 2027 (1448–1449 AH) – Printable Hijri Calendar
Islamic Calendar 2027: Two Hijri Years in One Gregorian Year
The Gregorian year 2027 covers parts of two Hijri years. It opens on 22 Rajab 1448, in the middle of 1448 AH. That year began on 16 June 2026 and is expected to end around 5 June 2027. Then 1449 AH begins around 6 June 2027 and runs to about 24 May 2028.
This happens because the Islamic year follows the moon and is about 354 days long — around 11 days shorter than the Gregorian year. That is why Islamic dates move about 11 days earlier every Gregorian year.
All dates on this page are expected and subject to moon sighting. In Pakistan, the official dates are announced by the Ruet-e-Hilal Committee after the moon is sighted. If the moon is sighted a day later than expected, the dates below move by one day. Dates in Saudi Arabia and other countries can also differ by a day, because each country follows its own moon sighting.

Fasting Dates in 2027
Ayyam al-Bidh — the White Days
Ayyam al-Bidh are the 13th, 14th and 15th days of each Hijri month. They are called the “white days” because the moon is at its fullest and brightest on these nights. Many Muslims fast on these three days each month as a Sunnah practice. The expected Gregorian dates for 2027 are:
| Hijri month | 13th–15th (expected Gregorian dates) |
|---|---|
| Rajab 1448 | 23–25 December 2026 |
| Sha’ban 1448 | 22–24 January 2027 |
| Ramadan 1448 | 20–22 February 2027 * |
| Shawwal 1448 | 21–24 March 2027 |
| Dhul Qa’dah 1448 | 20–22 April 2027 |
| Dhul Hijjah 1448 | 20–22 May 2027 ** |
| Muharram 1449 | 18–20 June 2027 |
| Safar 1449 | 18–20 July 2027 |
| Rabi al-Awwal 1449 | 16–18 August 2027 |
| Rabi al-Thani 1449 | 15–17 September 2027 |
| Jumada al-Awwal 1449 | 14–16 October 2027 |
| Jumada al-Thani 1449 | 13–15 November 2027 |
| Rajab 1449 | 12–14 December 2027 |
| Sha’ban 1449 | 11–13 January 2028 |
* In Ramadan the whole month is a month of fasting, so the white days fall inside the obligatory fasts.
** The 13th of Dhul Hijjah (about 20 May 2027) is one of the days of Tashreeq, when fasting is not observed, so the white-days fast is not kept on that day.
These dates are worked out from the expected month starts above. If a month starts a day later, these dates move by a day too.
Day of Ashura
The Day of Ashura falls on 10 Muharram. In 2027 it is expected around 15 June 2027 (9–10 Muharram 1449, about 14–15 June 2027). Many Muslims also fast on 9 Muharram, the day before Ashura.
Day of Arafah
The Day of Arafah falls on 9 Dhul Hijjah. In 2027 it is expected on 15–16 May 2027. It is the day before Eid ul-Adha and a recommended day of fasting for those not performing Hajj.
Mondays and Thursdays
Many Muslims also fast on Mondays and Thursdays each week, following the Sunnah. These fasts have no fixed dates — they fall on the Monday and Thursday of every week, all year round.
