Description

Mecca was occupied by the Muslims on 11 December 629 AD (Julian), 18 Ramadan, 8 AH in the ancient (intercalated) Arabic calendar. It was not until the Farewell Pilgrimage in AD 632 that the practice of intercalation fell into disuse. Muhammad started the journey on 6 Ramadan and entered Mecca on 18 Ramadan.
