The Islamic calendar runs on sighting of the new moon. In every month, crescent - the new moon, is sighted on 29th of that month. If the new moon is sighted on 29th, the next day is counted as the first day of the new month. If not, the calendar counts the next day as 30th day of the month. After counting 30 days, the new month begins from the next day.
