How do I calculate my Hijri (Islamic) age?

Convert your Gregorian date of birth to Hijri using our Hijri Date Converter tool, then calculate the difference between that Hijri date and today's Hijri date. Hijri years are roughly 354 days (lunar) vs Gregorian 365.25, so your Hijri age is typically about 3 percent more than your Gregorian age. Example: a 30-year-old Gregorian is roughly 30 years 11 months Hijri. Milestones in Islamic tradition: bulug (puberty) varies by Islamic legal school, Hajj typically performed first time between ages 25 and 60, and Imam Ali (RA) is referenced as having said 'after 40 a man should know himself' (the 40 Hijri-year milestone is significant).

What is the retirement age in Pakistan?

Federal government employees: 60 standard. Women in many federal services can retire at 55. Provincial governments are similar (60/55). Pak Army officers: 52 to 60 depending on rank. Banking sector: typically 60. Multinationals and private companies: 60 standard, some up to 62 to 65 for senior leadership. State Bank of Pakistan: 60. EOBI pension eligibility: 60 male / 55 female with at least 15 years of contributions.

How is age calculated?

Age is the difference between two dates. We calculate full years first, then remaining months, then remaining days, accounting for varying month lengths and leap years. Example: born 15 March 2000, today 11 May 2026 → 26 years, 1 month, 27 days. Total days alive: approximately 9,553.

How are leap years handled?

Leap years are automatically accounted for. Each Gregorian year divisible by 4 is a leap year (with century corrections: years divisible by 100 are not leap unless also divisible by 400). For people born on 29 February, the calculator increments their age on either 28 February or 1 March in non-leap years, per Pakistani administrative convention. Total-days count remains accurate regardless.

Is my birth date saved anywhere?

No. The calculation runs entirely in your browser. Nothing is uploaded, logged, or stored on any server. Safe for use with private dates of birth on shared computers or sensitive documentation work.
