The dates of the main events in the Hijri and Gregorian calendars according to Umm al-Qura, each with a status that tells you how certain it is.
Expected: calculated with Umm al-Qura but it depends on moon sighting or an official announcement in your country. Calculated: follows directly from the Hijri month date. Officially announced: a documented official announcement exists (shown only when entered in the site data). Traditional date: scholars differ on the matter.

About the Mawlid
We list 12 Rabi' al-Awwal because it is the commonly cited date of the Prophet's ﷺ birth. We take no position on celebrating it, a matter on which scholars hold well-known differing views; we give the date for information and refer you to trusted scholars in your country.
This site currently carries no official announcement, so every date is calculated. When a documented official announcement is added, its status changes to “Officially announced” and the source is shown.
