Eid al-Adha Countdown: How Many Days Left?
The next date by Umm al-Qura
Eid al-Adha is 10 Dhu al-Hijjah. It is preceded by the Day of Arafah (the 9th) and followed by the days of Tashreeq (11, 12 and 13). It depends on the sighting of the Dhu al-Hijjah crescent, and the Eid in your country can fall a day away from the Hajj date in Saudi Arabia, depending on local sighting.
By the Umm al-Qura calendar, Eid al-Adha 1448 AH falls on Sunday 16 May 2027. The month of Dhu al-Hijjah 1448 AH has 30 days, from 7 May 2027 to 5 June 2027.
The date over the coming years
| Hijri year | Day | Gregorian date |
|---|---|---|
| 1448 | Sunday | 16 May 2027 |
| 1449 | Friday | 5 May 2028 |
| 1450 | Tuesday | 24 April 2029 |
| 1451 | Saturday | 13 April 2030 |
| 1452 | Wednesday | 2 April 2031 |
Two consecutive dates are 354 or 355 days apart, which is why the date moves about 11 days earlier on the Gregorian calendar each year.
How the countdown works
The countdown measures the time left until midnight at the start of that day in your device’s time zone, and updates every second. If you change the “Adjust the day” option the date moves with it. The reminder button creates an ICS file with an alert one day before; it is generated in your browser and no data is sent anywhere.
