It is important to note that, unlike the Gregorian New Year, the date of the Islamic New year shifts every year. The main reason behind this is the fact that the Islamic Year lasts 10-12 days shorter every year, thereby changing the date of the event every year. Here’s hoping that the beginning of this new year fills our life with some much-needed change and also helps us to reflect and remember what truly matters in life. Happy Hijri New Year 2020!
