Hi waqas85,


Thanks for contacting Apple Support Communities!


We understand that the Islamic calendar isn't showing the correct date on your iPhone.


We'd like to have you refresh your Calendar and test again. You can go to Settings > Calendar > Alternate Calendars and set it to Off.


Next, go to Settings > General > Language & Region to change Region to Saudi Arabia.


Restart your iPhone then go to Settings > Calendar > Alternate Calendars to enable Islamic Calendar.


Next, go to Settings > General > Language & Region and set the region to your current location.


Check your Calendar to ensure the date is correct.


We hope this helps.


Cheers!
