Sure! Here’s a short blog post in English using the information you provided, suitable for a general audience:
Today is Sunday, April 20, 2025, and in Pakistan, the corresponding Islamic date is 22 Shawwal 1446 Hijri.
The Islamic calendar, also known as the Hijri calendar, is a lunar calendar consisting of 12 months in a year of 354 or 355 days. Shawwal is the tenth month of the Islamic calendar and follows the sacred month of Ramadan. It holds special significance for Muslims around the world. The first day of Shawwal is celebrated as Eid al-Fitr, marking the end of Ramadan, though by the 22nd of the month, the festivities have usually settled.
Many people continue their worship, reflection, and acts of charity during Shawwal. It is also encouraged to fast six days during this month, as per a well-known Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), which says:
“Whoever fasts the month of Ramadan and then follows it with six days of Shawwal, it is as if he fasted the whole year.”
(Sahih Muslim)
As we pass through this blessed month, it’s a good time to reflect, maintain the spiritual momentum gained during Ramadan, and strive to continue good deeds.
Wishing everyone peace, prosperity, and continued blessings this Shawwal.
