In 2025, the Islamic New Year, also known as Al-Hijra or Muharram, is expected to begin on June 26th at sunset and continue into June 27th. This date is subject to the sighting of the moon, which determines the beginning of each lunar month in the Islamic calendar. The Islamic New Year is a time for reflection, remembrance, and spiritual renewal, not typically associated with festive celebrations like the Gregorian New Year.
