Answer
function gmod(n,m){ return ((n%m)+m)%m; } function kuwaiticalendar(adjust){ var today = new Date(); if(adjust) { adjustmili = 1000*60*60*24*adjust; todaymili = today.getTime()+adjustmili; today = new Date(todaymili); } day = today.getDate(); month = today.getMonth(); year = today.getFullYear(); m = month+1; y = year; if(m<3) { y -= 1; m += 12; } a = Math.floor(y/100.); b = 2-a+Math.floor(a/4.); if(y<1583) b = 0; if(y==1582) { if(m>10) b = -10; if(m==10) { b = 0; if(day>4) b = -10; } } jd = Math.floor(365.25*(y+4716))+Math.floor(30.6001*(m+1))+day+b-1524; b = 0; if(jd>2299160){ a = Math.floor((jd-1867216.25)/36524.25); b = 1+a-Math.floor(a/4.); } bb = jd+b+1524; cc = Math.floor((bb-122.1)/365.25); dd = Math.floor(365.25*cc); ee = Math.floor((bb-dd)/30.6001); day =(bb-dd)-Math.floor(30.6001*ee); month = ee-1; if(ee>13) { cc += 1; month = ee-13; } year = cc-4716; wd = gmod(jd+1,7)+1; iyear = 10631./30.; epochastro = 1948084; epochcivil = 1948085; shift1 = 8.01/60.; z = jd-epochastro; cyc = Math.floor(z/10631.); z = z-10631*cyc; j = Math.floor((z-shift1)/iyear); iy = 30*cyc+j; z = z-Math.floor(j*iyear+shift1); im = Math.floor((z+28.5001)/29.5); if(im==13) im = 12; id = z-Math.floor(29.5001*im-29); var myRes = new Array(8); myRes[0] = day; //calculated day (CE) myRes[1] = month-1; //calculated month (CE) myRes[2] = year; //calculated year (CE) myRes[3] = jd-1; //julian day number myRes[4] = wd-1; //weekday number myRes[5] = id; //islamic date myRes[6] = im-1; //islamic month myRes[7] = iy; //islamic year return myRes; } function writeIslamicDate(adjustment) { var wdNames = new Array("Ahad","Ithnin","Thulatha","Arbaa","Khams","Jumuah","Sabt"); var iMonthNames = new Array("Muharram","Safar","Rabi'ul Awwal","Rabi'ul Akhir", "Jumadal Ula","Jumadal Akhira","Rajab","Sha'ban", "Ramadan","Shawwal","Dhul Qa'ada","Dhul Hijja"); var iDate = kuwaiticalendar(adjustment); var outputIslamicDate = wdNames[iDate[4]] + ", " + iDate[5] + " " + iMonthNames[iDate[6]] + " " + iDate[7] + " AH"; return outputIslamicDate; }
This converts current computer date to hijri. And with a little modification you can achieve that this snippet change any date to islamic
document.write(writeIslamicDate(1));
