![]() ![]() Here, you can see my previous post on the importance of lunar calendar Special Prayers So to determine the equivalent of 300 solar years in terms of lunar years, we need to add on 9 more years – just as in the verse!!!The precision in the description of difference between these two methods can be cited as a clear proof for its authenticity and a miracle of the beloved messenger (PBUH). Thus 100 solar years is equivalent to 103 lunar years. We see here wonderful description of the Holy Qur’an as it does not directly state 309 years but 300 plus 9!Ī solar year consists 365.242217 days while a lunar year 354.36768 days, having a difference of 10.874537 days. “They did stay in their Cave for three hundred years and add nine.” (Surat al-Kahf, 25) For instance, the Holy Quran used both solar and lunar calendar to describe a historical episode. According to that account the Hibernation of The Seven Sleepers’ in the Cave lasted 300 solar years that is 309 years in the lunar calendar. Although Islam advises to use lunar calendar for all its religious applications, it also endorses the solar method in the calculation of the fourth dimension. The Holy Quran describes the Sun and the Moon as means of reckoning for human being. ![]() May Allah pour upon all of us His blessings and bounties and forgive a ll of our wrongdoings and misconduct.
