|
8
|
+

|

|
+
### Added
|
|
10
|
+
- App-builder conveniences for calendars, counters and converters:
|
|
11
|
+
- `hijri_range`, `iter_month`, `days_in_month`, `month_calendar` (week grid).
|
|
12
|
+
- `next_occurrence`, `next_holiday`, `upcoming_holidays`, `days_until_holiday`.
|
|
13
|
+
- `HijriDate` gains `strftime` (and `__format__`, so `f"{d:%d %B %Y}"` works),
|
|
14
|
+
`to_dict` (JSON-friendly), `replace`, `fromisoformat`, `day_of_year`,
|
|
15
|
+
`days_until`, `age_in_years` and `HijriDate.range`.
|
|
16
|
+
- CLI: `--json` output, plus `next` (upcoming days with countdowns) and
|
|
17
|
+
`calendar` (month grid) commands.

## [1.0.0] - 2026-06-15
|
|
20
|
+
|
|
21
|
+
### Added
|
|
22
|
+
- `HijriDate`: immutable, comparable, hashable Hijri date with arithmetic,
|
|
23
|
+
formatting, ISO output, weekday/month names and religious-day lookup.
|
|
24
|
+
- Two interchangeable engines:
|
|
25
|
+
- `ArithmeticCalendar` — exact, reversible tabular calendar with five
|
|
26
|
+
leap-year variants and unbounded date range.
|
|
27
|
+
- `AstronomicalCalendar` — location- and criterion-aware crescent-visibility
|
|
28
|
+
calendar (months are always 29 or 30 days).
|
|
29
|
+
- Crescent-visibility engine (`compute_crescent`, `CrescentInfo`) computing
|
|
30
|
+
elongation, altitude, arc of vision, moon age, moonset lag and crescent width
|
|
31
|
+
from a full Meeus lunar/solar model.
|
|
32
|
+
- Visibility criteria: `ircica` (default), `mabims`, `umm_al_qura`,
|
|
33
|
+
`conjunction`, `odeh`.
|
|
34
|
+
- Global / "unified" calendar mode via `AstronomicalCalendar(..., scope="global")`,
|
|
35
|
+
which declares a month begun once the crescent is visible anywhere on Earth
|
|
36
|
+
(approximating national unified calendars such as the Türkiye Takvimi).
|
|
37
|
+
- `HijriDate.at()` — sunset-aware (maghrib) day boundary for an instant + place.
|
|
38
|
+
- `Observer` with built-in city presets.
|
|
39
|
+
- Forgiving `parse()` understanding ISO strings and month names in any
|
|
40
|
+
registered language.
|
|
41
|
+
- Internationalization (`en`, `tr`, `ar`) with `register_locale()` for adding
|
|
42
|
+
more languages.
|
|
43
|
+
- Religious-day calendar including holy-night eves (`year_holidays`).
|
|
44
|
+
- Command-line interface (`hijrical` / `python -m hijrical`) with `today`,
|
|
45
|
+
`g2h`, `h2g`, `holidays`, `at` and `compare`.
|
|
46
|
+
- Zero runtime dependencies; ships `py.typed`.

# hijrical 🌙

31
|
+
**Accurate, location-aware Hijri ⇄ Gregorian date conversion for Python.**
|
|
32
|
+
|
|
33
|
+
A modern, professional alternative to `hijridate` — without its limitations and
|
|
34
|
+
with the things it lacks: an *unbounded* exact calendar, real **crescent
|
|
35
|
+
visibility** that depends on **where you are**, the **sunset day boundary**, and
|
|
36
|
+
**internationalization** (English / Turkish / Arabic, easily extended).

## Why hijrical?
|
|
53
|
+
|
|
54
|
+
| | `hijridate` | **hijrical** |
|
|
55
|
+
|---|---|---|
|
|
56
|
+
| Date range | **1343–1500 AH only** (1924–2077) | Arithmetic: **unbounded**; astronomical: 1–1600 AH |
|
|
57
|
+
| Methods | One (Umm al-Qura table) | **Arithmetic** + **astronomical/visibility** |
|
|
58
|
+
| Location-aware | ❌ | ✅ Istanbul and Mecca can differ by a day |
|
|
59
|
+
| Sunset (maghrib) day boundary | ❌ | ✅ `HijriDate.at(instant, place)` |
|
|
60
|
+
| Reversible | table-bound | **Pure-integer, exact round-trip** |
|
|
61
|
+
| Religious days / holy nights | ❌ | ✅ with i18n + correct night eves |
|
|
62
|
+
| Languages | English | **en / tr / ar**, pluggable |
|
|
63
|
+
| Dependencies | none | none |
|
|
64
|
+
|
|
65
|
+
> `hijridate` is backed by the Umm al-Qura **table**, so it only works for
|
|
66
|
+
> 1924–2077 and raises outside it. hijrical's arithmetic engine is pure integer
|
|
67
|
+
> math: it works for **any** date and round-trips perfectly. On top of that,
|
|
68
|
+
> hijrical adds a real astronomical engine that models crescent visibility per
|
|
69
|
+
> location — the thing that actually decides when a Hijri month begins.

|
|
98
|

## The two engines
|
|
118
|
+
|
|
119
|
+
```python
|
|
120
|
+
from hijrical import ArithmeticCalendar, AstronomicalCalendar, HijriDate
|
|
121
|
+
|
|
122
|
+
# Arithmetic (default): exact, reversible, unbounded
|
|
123
|
+
HijriDate(1447, 9, 1, calendar=ArithmeticCalendar("kuwaiti"))
|
|
124
|
+
|
|
125
|
+
# Astronomical: real crescent visibility for a place + criterion
|
|
126
|
+
HijriDate(1447, 9, 1, calendar=AstronomicalCalendar("istanbul", "ircica"))
|
|
127
|
+
```
|
|
128
|
+
|
|
129
|
+
| Engine | Use it for | Guarantee |
|
|
130
|
+
|---|---|---|
|
|
131
|
+
| `ArithmeticCalendar` | civil/database use, history, anything needing a stable, reversible mapping | Mathematically exact; same input → same output, forever |
|
|
132
|
+
| `AstronomicalCalendar` | predicting real religious dates as observed somewhere | A close **prediction**; may differ ±1 day from official decrees |
|
|
133
|
+
|
|
134
|
+
Arithmetic variants: `kuwaiti` (default, Type II / Microsoft), `type1`,
|
|
135
|
+
`type3`, `type4`, `kuwaiti_astronomical`.

## 🌍 Location-based crescent visibility (the interesting part)
|
|
140
|
+
|
|
141
|
+
A Hijri month begins when the new crescent (*hilal*) is **seen** — and whether
|
|
142
|
+
it can be seen depends on **where you stand**. Right after the astronomical new
|
|
143
|
+
moon the crescent is thin and low; from one city it clears the horizon by
|
|
144
|
+
sunset, from another it does not. That is exactly why **Ramadan sometimes starts
|
|
145
|
+
a day later in Türkiye than in Saudi Arabia.**
|
|
146
|
+
|
|
147
|
+
hijrical models this directly. For a given `Observer` and `Criterion` it computes
|
|
148
|
+
the Moon's real position at sunset and decides visibility:
|
|
149
|
+
|
|
150
|
+
```python
|
|
151
|
+
from hijrical import HijriDate, AstronomicalCalendar
|
|
152
|
+
|
|
153
|
+
ramadan = lambda obs, crit: HijriDate(
|
|
154
|
+
1447, 9, 1, calendar=AstronomicalCalendar(obs, crit)
|
|
155
|
+
).to_gregorian()
|
|
156
|
+
|
|
157
|
+
ramadan("mecca", "umm_al_qura") # 2026-02-18
|
|
158
|
+
ramadan("istanbul", "ircica") # 2026-02-19 ← one day later
|
|
159
|
+
ramadan("jakarta", "mabims") # 2026-02-19
|
|
160
|
+
```
|
|
161
|
+
|
|
162
|
+
Or from the command line:
|
|
163
|
+
|
|
164
|
+
```text
|
|
165
|
+
$ hijrical compare 1447 9 1
|
|
166
|
+
Hijri 1447-09-01 in Gregorian, by method/location:
|
|
167
|
+
arithmetic : 2026-02-18

### What the engine actually computes
|
|
179
|
+
|
|
180
|
+
For the sunset of each candidate evening it derives, from a full Meeus lunar +
|
|
181
|
+
solar model (validated to arc-seconds against Meeus' own worked example):
|
|
182
|
+
|
|
183
|
+
- **elongation** (arc of light) — Sun–Moon separation,
|
|
184
|
+
- **altitude** — the Moon's *topocentric* altitude (parallax-corrected; the Moon
|
|
185
|
+
sits ~0.95° lower for a surface observer, which matters near the horizon),
|
|
186
|
+
- **arc of vision** (ARCV) — Moon altitude minus Sun altitude,
|
|
187
|
+
- **moon age** — time since conjunction,
|
|
188
|
+
- **lag** — how long after the Sun the Moon sets,
|
|
189
|
+
- **crescent width** — illuminated width in arcminutes.
|
|
190
|
+
|
|
191
|
+
You can inspect these yourself:
|
|
192
|
+
|
|
193
|
+
```python
|
|
194
|
+
from datetime import date
|
|
195
|
+
from hijrical import compute_crescent, sunset
|
|
196
|
+
from hijrical.observer import resolve_observer
|
|
197
|
+
from hijrical._moon import new_moon_jd_ut
|
|
198
|
+
|
|
199
|
+
obs = resolve_observer("istanbul")
|
|
200
|
+
ss = sunset(date(2026, 2, 17), obs.latitude, obs.longitude, obs.utc_offset)
|
|
201
|
+
info = compute_crescent(obs, ss, new_moon_jd_ut(323))
|
|
202
|
+
print(info) # elong=…, alt=…, ARCV=…, age=…, lag=…, width=…
|
|
203
|
+
```
|
|
204
|
+
|
|
205
|
+
### Built-in criteria
|
|
206
|
+
|
|
207
|
+
| Criterion | Rule | Notes |
|
|
208
|
+
|---|---|---|
|
|
209
|
+
| `ircica` *(default)* | elongation ≥ 8°, altitude ≥ 5° | Türkiye / IRCICA unified-calendar thresholds |
|
|
210
|
+
| `mabims` | elongation ≥ 6.4°, altitude ≥ 3° | Southeast Asia (Indonesia/Malaysia/Brunei/Singapore) |
|
|
211
|
+
| `umm_al_qura` | Moon sets after the Sun (lag > 0) and conjunction before sunset | close to the Saudi official calendar |
|
|
212
|
+
| `odeh` | Odeh (2004) ARCV vs crescent-width *q*-test | naked-eye / optical zones |
|
|
213
|
+
| `conjunction` | conjunction before sunset | simplest baseline |
|
|
214
|
+
|
|
215
|
+
Bring your own:
|
|
216
|
+
|
|
217
|
+
```python
|
|
218
|
+
from hijrical.criteria import AltitudeElongationCriterion
|
|
219
|
+
from hijrical import AstronomicalCalendar
|
|
220
|
+
|
|
221
|
+
my_rule = AltitudeElongationCriterion(min_elongation=7.0, min_altitude=4.0, name="custom")
|
|
222
|
+
AstronomicalCalendar("ankara", my_rule)
|
|
223
|
+
```
|
|
224
|
+
|
|
225
|
+
### Local vs. global ("unified") calendars
|
|
226
|
+
|
|
227
|
+
The criteria above judge visibility **at the observer's own location**. Some
|
|
228
|
+
national calendars (e.g. Türkiye's official *Türkiye Takvimi*, adopted in 2016)
|
|
229
|
+
instead use a **global** rule: the month turns over for everyone once the
|
|
230
|
+
crescent is visible *anywhere* on Earth within certain bounds. hijrical supports
|
|
231
|
+
both via the `scope` argument:
|
|
232
|
+
|
|
233
|
+
```python
|
|
234
|
+
from hijrical import AstronomicalCalendar, HijriDate
|
|
235
|
+
|
|
236
|
+
local = AstronomicalCalendar("istanbul", "ircica") # "is it visible here?"
|
|
237
|
+
global_ = AstronomicalCalendar("mecca", "ircica", scope="global") # "is it visible anywhere?"
|
|
238
|
+
|
|
239
|
+
HijriDate(1447, 9, 1, calendar=local).to_gregorian() # 2026-02-19
|
|
240
|
+
HijriDate(1447, 9, 1, calendar=global_).to_gregorian() # 2026-02-18 (the world has seen it)
|
|
241
|
+
```
|
|
242
|
+
|
|
243
|
+
The global mode samples a worldwide grid of locations at their local sunsets and
|
|
244
|
+
declares the crescent seen as soon as any of them satisfies the criterion. It is
|
|
245
|
+
therefore never *later* than a single-location result, and it approximates the
|
|
246
|
+
"unified" calendars used by several authorities. For matching a specific
|
|
247
|
+
authority exactly, pick the engine/criterion closest to its policy
|
|
248
|
+
(`umm_al_qura` for Saudi Arabia, `scope="global"` + `ircica` for a Türkiye-style
|
|
249
|
+
unified calendar) and treat results as predictions — the final word always
|
|
250
|
+
belongs to the official sighting/announcement.

## 🌇 Sunset (maghrib) day boundary
|
|
255
|
+
|
|
256
|
+
The Islamic day begins at **sunset**, not midnight — so the eve of a feast is
|
|
257
|
+
already, religiously, the feast's first night. `HijriDate.at()` handles this:
|
|
258
|
+
|
|
259
|
+
```python
|
|
260
|
+
from datetime import datetime
|
|
261
|
+
from hijrical import HijriDate
|
|
262
|
+
|
|
263
|
+
HijriDate.at(datetime(2026, 6, 15, 12, 0), "istanbul").isoformat() # '1447-12-29'
|
|
264
|
+
HijriDate.at(datetime(2026, 6, 15, 22, 0), "istanbul").isoformat() # '1447-12-30'
|
|
265
|
+
```
|
|
266
|
+
|
|
267
|
+
The same idea drives **holy-night eves** in the holidays API (below).

## 🧰 Recipes for app builders
|

294
|
+
Everything you need for **calendar apps, countdown widgets and converters**.
|
|
295
|
+
|
|
296
|
+
**Format dates (strftime-style, works in f-strings):**
|
|
297
|
+
|
|
298
|
+
```python
|
|
299
|
+
h = HijriDate(1447, 9, 1)
|
|
300
|
+
h.strftime("%d %B %Y (%A)") # '01 Ramadan 1447 (Wednesday)'
|
|
301
|
+
f"{h:%d.%m.%Y}" # '01.09.1447'
|
|
302
|
+
h.strftime("%d %B %Y", lang="tr")
|
|
303
|
+
```
|
|
304
|
+
|
|
305
|
+
**Iterate and lay out a month grid:**
|
|
306
|
+
|
|
307
|
+
```python
|
|
308
|
+
from hijrical import hijri_range, iter_month, month_calendar
|
|
309
|
+
|
|
310
|
+
for d in hijri_range(HijriDate(1447, 9, 1), HijriDate(1447, 10, 1)):
|
|
311
|
+
... # every day of Ramadan 1447
|
|
312
|
+
|
|
313
|
+
weeks = month_calendar(1447, 9) # list of weeks, Monday-first
|
|
314
|
+
for week in weeks: # each week is 7 cells (HijriDate or None)
|
|
315
|
+
print(" ".join(f"{c.day:2}" if c else " " for c in week))
|
|
316
|
+
```
|
|
317
|
+
|
|
318
|
+
**Countdowns and special-day counters:**
|
|
319
|
+
|
|
320
|
+
```python
|
|
321
|
+
from hijrical import next_holiday, days_until_holiday, next_occurrence
|
|
322
|
+
|
|
323
|
+
days_until_holiday("ramadan_start") # e.g. 247 (days from today)
|
|
324
|
+
nh = next_holiday(key="eid_al_fitr") # next Eid al-Fitr as a ReligiousDay
|
|
325
|
+
print(nh.gregorian, nh.name("tr"))
|
|
326
|
+
|
|
327
|
+
next_occurrence(1, 1) # next Islamic New Year (annual recurrence)
|
|
328
|
+
HijriDate.today().days_until(nh.gregorian) # generic day countdown
|
|
329
|
+
```
|
|
330
|
+
|
|
331
|
+
**Serialize for an API / converter UI:**
|
|
332
|
+
|
|
333
|
+
```python
|
|
334
|
+
HijriDate(1447, 9, 27).to_dict("tr")
|
|
335
|
+
# {'year': 1447, 'month': 9, 'day': 27, 'iso': '1447-09-27',
|
|
336
|
