About Rabi al-Thani
Rabi al-Thani ("the second spring"), also called Rabi al-Akhir ("the last spring"), follows Rabi al-Awwal. It has no fixed observances in the Islamic calendar.
Because the Hijri year is about 11 days shorter than the solar year, the "spring" months now fall in every season over a cycle of roughly 33 years.
