What is Day of Arafah?
The Day of Arafah is the 9th of Dhuʾl-Hijjah and the greatest pillar of Hajj, when pilgrims stand on the plain of Arafah. For non-pilgrims, fasting this day is recommended and is said to expiate the previous and coming year.
How is the date determined?
Dates here are calculated astronomically per the Umm al-Qura standard used in Saudi Arabia. Some countries rely on direct moon sighting instead, so the actual date can differ by about one day between regions.
