Dhu al-Hijjah 1448 is expected to begin on 7 May 2027 on the Umm al-Qura calendar, putting the main rites on 14-16 May with Arafah on the 15th and Eid al-Adha on the 16th.

Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most.
