Saudi Arabia Switches From Islamic Calendar To Jesus Birth Date-based Gregorian by kvibes: 7:15pm On Dec 17, 2016 |
he Islamic Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has switched from the lunar-based Islamic calendar, which starts with the emigration of Muhammad from Mecca to Medina, to the “Western” Gregorian calendar, named after Pope Gregory XIII and based on Jesus Christ’s birth. The decision, taken during a recent cabinet session chaired by King Salman Bin Abdul Aziz, is an austerity measure to deal with its budget deficit, according to reports, which say the drop in crude oil prices beginning 2014 has hit the world’s top oil exporter hard. The Muslim calendar, also known as Hijri, loses some 11 days a year so that Islamic holy days rotate around the seasons every 32 years, according to Gulf News, which also said the move will lead to civil servants losing 11 days of payment with salary days being cut. Earlier, only the private sector used the Gregorian calendar of its oil customers to calculate salaries. The measure, which involves many other cost cutting measures, came into effect in October.

It's a very normal thing in history, there had been calendars in use millenia before Jesus came. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_calendars https://m.timecenter.com/articles/the-history-of-the-western-calendar/? |

Muslims love Jesus and Mary. Before you become a Muslim you must accept Jesus as prophet of God. However, Muslim worship only One God not Jesus, Mary, Idols, Sun, Moon or any God creation. Jesus is revered as prophet like Abraham, Mosses, Muhammad etc. We love, not hate, Jesus. |
