A reference suitable for everyone; researchers, historians, organizations and individuals for activities that require the identification of corresponding dates in the past and/or in the future. This book contains a civil Hijri comparative calendar, listing Hijri dates with its corresponding Julian/Gregorian dates, starting from the year 1 Hijri and ending at the year 2000 Hijri. Prepared using the conjunction method and taking the international date line as the reference, this comparative calendar also contains the conjunction times that occur at the end of each lunar Hijri month.

His father came from Bhopal state to settle down in Nagpur, now Maharashtra state in India. He was born at Nagpur in 1927. Since his childhood, he was obsessed with heavenly bodies. At the age of 14 he constructed his first hand-made telescope. He has been known as "Chand Wala Babu" (Moon Gazer) among the local residents. He finished his high school from Anjuman High School, Nagpur in 1946. He pursued his Bachelor's degree in Science in Applied Mathematics, Pure Mathematics, Physics and Astronomy from the Institute of Science, Nagpur University. Upon finishing his bachelors degree in 1950 he moved to Lahore - Pakistan and obtained his M.Sc. degree in Physics in 1952 from Panjab University, Lahore, Pakistan.

He then proceeded to the UK in 1958 for his higher studies and obtained the Ph.D. degree in Astronomy from the University of Edinburgh - UK. For post doctorate work he proceeded to Boston University - USA in 1964. His professional career started when he came back to Pakistan in 1965 as Senior Scientific Officer in SUPARCO (Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Committee, now a Commission), Karachi. The first Astronomical Observatory in Pakistan at Karachi University was constructed under his supervision. He moved in 1968 to King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia to supervise the Kingdom's large scale observatory project.
