Dhu al-Qa'dah
(
Arabic
:
??? ??????????
,
?? al-Qa ?dah
,
IPA:
[ðu?l.qa?.dah]
), also spelled
Dhu al-Qi'dah
or
Zu al-Qa'dah
, is the eleventh month in the
Islamic calendar
.
It could possibly mean "possessor or owner of the sitting and seating place" - the space occupied while sitting or the manner of the sitting, pose or posture.
It is one of the four
sacred months
in Islam during which warfare is prohibited, hence the name "Master of
Truces
".
In
Ottoman
times, the name in
Ottoman Turkish
was
Zi'l-ka'de
,
[1]
abbreviation
Za
.
[2]
In modern Turkish, it is
Zilkade
.
Transliteration
[
edit
]
The most correct and most traditionally widespread transliteration of the month according to the thirteenth century Syrian jurist
al-Nawawi
is
Dhu'l Qa'dah
. Al-Nawawi also mentions that a smaller group of linguists allow the transliteration Dhu'l-Qi'dah, however.
[3]
In modern times, it is most commonly referred to as Dhu'l Qi'dah although this is neither linguistically nor historically the strongest position.
Timing
[

]
The
Islamic calendar
is a
lunar calendar
, and months begin when the first crescent of a
new moon
is sighted. Since the Islamic lunar calendar year is 11 to 12 days shorter than the
tropical year
, Dhu'l-Qi'dah migrates throughout the seasons. The estimated start and end dates for Dhu'l-Qi'dah, based on the Umm al-Qura calendar of Saudi Arabia, are:
