I read this somewhere so don't hold me accountable if it is wrong.  I understand that the problem with an Islamic calander is that
the dates in it are not set in stone as they are in the Gregorian calander (we always know when the leap day is; we have a formula
for all the holidays and such).  In the Islamic calander certain dates begin when the first person in Islam sees the sun on certain
days?  If this is the case, and I really am not sure about it, then it would be almost impossible to write an accurate calander
object.
