July 18, 2042 — August 16, 2042 Hijri Year 1464 Calendar
Sha'ban 1464 هـ
The month of voluntary fasting and preparation for Ramadan, containing the blessed night of Nisf Sha'ban.
Sha'ban is the eighth month of the Hijri calendar. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used to fast frequently during this month, saying it is a month that people neglect between Rajab and Ramadan. On the 15th night (Nisf Sha'ban), many Muslims engage in extra worship and supplication. It is a month of spiritual preparation before the blessed month of Ramadan.
