When is Quds Day in 2014?

Quds Day in 2014 is on Friday, the 25th of July (25/7/2014).

Note that in the Muslim calander, a holiday begins on the sunset of the previous day, so observing Muslims will celebrate Quds Day on the sunset of Thursday, the 24th of July.

Although Quds Day is always on the same day of the Islamic calendar, the date on the Gregorian calendar varies from year to year, since the Gregorian calendar is a solar calendar and the Islamic calendar is a lunar calendar. This difference means Quds Day moves in the Gregorian calendar approximately 11 days every year. The date of Quds Day may also vary from country to country depending on whether the moon has been sighted or not.

The dates provided here are based on the dates adopted by the Fiqh Council of North America for the celebration of Quds Day. Note that these dates are based on astronomical calculations to affirm each date, and not on the actual sighting of the moon with the naked eyes. This approach is accepted by many, but is still being hotly debated.
