The 33-year cycle

• Hari Raya Aidilfitri follows the Islamic lunar Hijri calendar, which is approximately 10 to 12 days shorter than the Gregorian calendar each year.
• Due to this gradual shift, the celebration moves earlier annually.
• However, over a cycle of 33 years, the date realigns, causing Hari Raya Aidilfitri to fall on almost the same Gregorian date once again.
