Islamic Calendar Date Opera Extension

Alhamdulillah, all praise be to Allah. I just received an email from a developer who has released an Opera extension that shows the current Islamic Date (Hijri date).

The widget or extension is based on the javascript formula to calculate the current islamic hijri date that is available at Alhabib’s main site. It will show the hijri date based on “Kuwaiti Algorithm” and should match closely to the actual phase of the moon. However, it may deviate from actual date based on hilal or crescent sighting.

If you are using Opera web browser, just go to the Islamic Date extension page to get it and with a click of a button you will be presented with the current hijra date.
