Question[edit]

I'm not very familiar with the Islamic calendar, so could somebody please clarify why two months are mentioned in this month? I refer to where it says "Jumada-l-Ola and Jumada-l-Akhra / These are the fifth and sixth months of the calendar.". Thanks, Valley2city 02:05, 23 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

ok, there are two Jumada's, the first [Ola: prime/Awwal: first], and the second one [Akhra: last/Thani: second]. also two Rabi's. and two Safar's; but Safar-l-Ola then renamed into Muharram. Tabascofernandez (talk) 07:19, 6 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Jumada means cold[edit]

originally it [and its twin] were correspondent to Shvat and Adar [winter] Tabascofernandez (talk) 07:49, 6 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Jumada al-awwal => Jumada al-Awwal[edit]

Could someone who knows how to change article titles change "Jumada al-awwal" to "Jumada al-Awwal" to bring it in line with the use of capital letters in the names of the other Islamic months? AstroLynx (talk) 09:56, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@AstroLynx: Since Jumada al-Awwal is already "taken", someone with special user rights is required to rename the article. Please check WP:RM for further instructions. --HyperGaruda (talk) 21:00, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Jumada al-awwal → Jumada al-Awwal
Rabi' al-awwal → Rabi' al-Awwal

– Harmonisation with other Islamic months that include mid-name capitalisation. See also the thread #Jumada al-awwal => Jumada al-Awwal above. For what it is worth, the Merriam-Webster dictionary also seems to use the proposed capitalised titles. HyperGaruda (talk) 18:07, 26 March 2022 (UTC) — Relisting.
