Ask The Imam Question and Answer

1071 I often notice the letters AH written next to dates in many Islamic books. Could you please explain what these refer to?
The Islamic calendar is based on the Migration of the Holy Prophet (S.A.W), from Makkah Shareef to the city of Madina Shareef and is abbreviated as AH (after Hijjrah).
