Moroccan variants

Although there is some degree of variation, I think Moroccan month names are more likely as they appear in https://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D8%B4%D9%87%D8%B1. Take a look at the differences in May, July; September and December. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.3.73.12 (talk) 16:40, 17 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Gregorian calendar now also in Saudi Arabia

This page gives the following statement: "Currently, all Arab states except Saudi Arabia (which uses the Islamic calendar for all purposes) use the Gregorian calendar for civil purposes". This exception of Saudi Arabia was true, but it is not so any more. From the autumn of 2016 C.E., Saudi Arabia has switched to the Gregorian calendar for many (but not all) civil purposes; see e.g. http://www.arabnews.com/node/993061/saudi-arabia and http://www.economist.com/news/middle-east-and-africa/21711938-hauling-saudi-arabia-21st-century-saudi-arabia-adopts-gregorian, both cited by the well-known Danish calendar expert Claus Tøndering at http://www.tondering.dk/claus/cal/islamic.php. /Erik Ljungstrand (Sweden) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.241.158.201 (talk) 14:40, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
