| | Calendars and their History |
 | | The form of the Islamic calendar, as a lunar calendar without intercalation, was laid down by the Prophet in the Qur'an (Sura IX, verse 36-37) and in his sermon at the Farewell Pilgrimage. | | | To ensure that religious festivals occur in appropriate seasons, months are intercalated according to the Metonic cycle, in which 235 lunations occur in nineteen years. | | | Early allusions to a lunisolar calendar with intercalated months are found in the hymns from the Rig Veda, dating from the second millennium B.C. Literature from 1300 B.C. to A.D. 300, provides information of a more specific nature. |

| | S. H. Taqizadeh: Old Iranian Calendars |
| | As a matter of fact, this kind of intercalation (1l6-yearly) was practiced in ancient Iran according to Kitâb al-awâ`il of 'Askarî quoted by Safadî in his al-wâfi bil-wafayât (JA. | | | The Zoroastrian community adopted the same system of twelve months of thirty days each, with a yearly intercalation of five days at the end of the year instead of making up for the deficiency of eleven or five days in their former year, by a three- or six-yearly intercalation. | | | He believes also that the intercalary month was inserted at the first intercalation after Shahrewar, the sixth month (possibly in the fourth century AD) as a second Shahrewar, and that on the next occasion a second Mihr was added to the year and so forth. |

| | The difference was corrected by an intercalation of eleven days at the end of the year on the Hamaspathmaidhaya Gahanbar of the vernal equinox. | | | Should we believe a 9th century Pahlavi tradition, the correction of five hours and a fraction was made good every four years, or the community had to wait for 40 years to intercalate 10 days or still more for 120 years to add a thirteenth month of 30 days. | | | The Iranian Zoroastrians, who follow the Qadimi Calendar, have abandoned intercalation since 1006 CE and the 365-day year has now forwarded their new year day by eight months. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Mohammed and Mohammedanism (Islam) |
| | The Mohammedan year, however, has a mean duration of 354 days, and is ten or eleven days shorter than the solar year, and Mohammedan festivals, accordingly, move in succession through all the seasons. | | | In conclusion, reference must be made here to the sacred months, and to the weekly holy day. | | | The Arabs had a year of twelve lunar months, and this, as often as seemed necessary, they brought roughly into accordance with the solar year by the intercalation of a thirteenth month. |

| | Because it developed in Western Christendom, it had also to provide a method for dating movable religious feasts, the timing of which had been based on a lunar reckoning. | | | The discrepancy between this year of about 354 days and the solar year of about 365 days is partially resolved by intercalation of an extra month every 30 months. | | | To keep the months of a lunar calendar (e.g., the Hindu calendar) in their proper seasons, an entire month must be intercalated or extracalated (dropped)... |

| | Intercalation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Intercalation is the insertion of an extra day, week or month into some calendar years to make the calendar follow the seasons. | | | Intercalation (chemistry) - Intercalation can also refer to the insertion of a molecule (or group) being inserted between two other molecules (or groups). | | | The determination of whether a year has intercalation may be calculated (Julian, Gregorian and Hebrew calendars), or determined by observation (Iranian calendar). |

| | It is also feasible and, in some instances preferable, to intercalate both (1) a metal of Group VI-B or Group VIII and (2) a Bronsted acid into the lattice of the graphite having Lewis acid fluoride under the conditions specified hereinabove, and then intercalation of the Bronsted acid as described. | | | This alkylation took place more slowly than the BF.sub.3 /graphite catalyzed alkylation. | | | This example illustrates that in contrast to fluorine, chlorine failed to catalyze the intercalation of BF.sub.3 in graphite. |
