When will be Waqf al Arafa in 2011

2011 Waqf al Arafawill be on Saturday, the 5th of November.

Although Waqf al Arafa is on the same date of the Islamic calendar, the day on the Gregorian calendar differs from year to year, as the Gregorian calendar is a solar calendar and the Islamic is a lunar calendar. This difference is that Waqf al Arafa moves in the Gregorian calendar about 11 days every year. The date of Waqf al Arafa 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 Waqf al Arafa. 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.
