What kind of calendar do Muslims follow?
-
I ask because in my history class, someone asked what significance the date of the September 11 attacks (9/11, 911) may have had, but I thought they used a different calendar, so the date wouldn't have meant anything to them.

Answer:
We follow lunar calendar (same as Jews) sight of new moon marks the beginning of month. one years will be of almost 354 days. Calemdars begins when Prophet Mohammed PBUH migrated from Makkah to Madina. This is years 1429. surprisingly 9/11/2008 matches with 9/11/1429 of Islamic calnedar.
