Hijri (Islamic lunar) calendar

Since the Islamic calendar is purely lunar, as opposed to solar or luni-solar, the Islamic (Hijri) year is shorter than the Gregorian year by about 11 days, and months in the Islamic (Hijri) year are not related to seasons, which are fundamentally determined by the solar cycle.
