About this edition
- Hijri dates follow the month beginnings printed in the source calendar: 1 Rajab 1446 falls on 1 January 2025 and 1 Rajab 1447 on 21 December 2025. A month may begin a day earlier or later by local moon sighting.
- Huravee Day is marked twice in the source calendar, on 23 November and 16 December. Both are reproduced here as printed.
- The Dhivehi text beside each entry is the wording used in the source. The devotional quotations printed on each month of the original are not included, as they could not be transcribed reliably from the scan. The daily prayer times printed in the original are likewise left out of this edition.
