Mohammadi Panjika (also known as Mohammodia Pocket Ponjika ) is a widely used Bengali almanac that serves as an essential cultural and religious guide for the Bengali-speaking Muslim community, particularly in Bangladesh
While the world rushes toward digital minimalism, millions of Bangladeshis will, on the last day of Sha'ban, still open their worn-out copy of the Panjika, squint at the tiny print for the Hilal age, and murmur a prayer. Whether you need to know when to fast, when to fish, or when to hold a wedding, the answer for centuries has been the same: "Dekh na Panjikay... (Check the Panjika...)"
A Brief History: From Baghdad to Bengal
The term "Mohammadi" signifies a connection to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), but the calendar system itself evolved over time. While the Hijri calendar began in 622 CE with the migration to Medina, the specific "panjika" format entered the Indian subcontinent via Persian and Mughal astronomers.
- Date (G) — Gregorian date
- Date (B) — Bengali date
- Tithi (start time if within day)
- Nakshatra

- Sunrise / Sunset times
- Moonrise / Moonset times (optional)
- Rahu/Ketu timings (if applicable)
- Mercury/Venus retrograde notes (if occurring)
