Arabic ToolboxHijri Age Calculator · حساب العمر بالهجري
Your exact age in Hijri and Gregorian years, months and days, from a date of birth in either calendar.
Enter your date of birth to see your age in Gregorian and Hijri years.
How the age is calculated
Your Gregorian age counts whole years and months since your date of birth, then the remaining days. Your Hijri age does the same in the Umm al-Qura calendar, where months have 29 or 30 days and a year has 354 or 355 days. That is why the Hijri age is usually higher, and why your Hijri birthday moves about 11 days earlier every year.
Today's date is taken in Saudi Arabia (Riyadh time). To convert a single date without calculating an age, use the Hijri date converter.
Frequently asked questions
Why is my Hijri age higher than my Gregorian age?
A Hijri year has 354 or 355 days, about 11 days fewer than a Gregorian year. Over 33 Gregorian years that adds up to about one extra Hijri year, so a 33-year-old is about 34 in Hijri years.
Can I enter my date of birth in Hijri?
Yes. Choose Hijri above the date fields and enter the Hijri day, month and year as written in your documents. The calculator converts it with the Umm al-Qura calendar.
Which Hijri calendar is used?
The Umm al-Qura calendar, Saudi Arabia's official calendar, which is also used for dates of birth in Saudi documents. Countries that rely on moon sighting can differ by a day.
I was born on 29 February. When is my birthday?
In years without 29 February the calculator counts your birthday on 28 February. The same rule applies to the 30th of a Hijri month that has only 29 days that year.
Is my date of birth sent anywhere?
No. The calculation runs in your browser and the date is not stored or sent.
