Iranian Calendar
|
As in all the Moslem Countries, also in Iran the calendar
starts the calculation of the years from the Egira (622
AD), from when that is the prophet Mohammed from the Mecca
migrated to Medina. But in Iran it is a solar calendar while
in the Arabic Countries it is lunar. Then the base is equal
but it changes the calculation of the years. |
