{{Main|Baháʼí calendar}}
The Baháʼí calendar is based upon the calendar established by the [[Báb]]. The year consists of 19 months, each having 19 days, with four or five [[Ayyám-i-Há|intercalary days]], to make a full [[Tropical year|solar year]].{{sfn|Hutter|2005|pp=737–740}} The Baháʼí New Year corresponds to the traditional Iranian New Year, called [[Baháʼí Naw-Rúz|Naw Rúz]], and occurs on the [[Vernal equinox (Northern Hemisphere)|vernal equinox]], near 21 March, at the end of the month of fasting. Once every Baháʼí month there is a gathering of the Baháʼí community called a [[Nineteen Day Feast]] with three parts: first, a devotional part for prayer and reading from Baháʼí scripture; second, an administrative part for consultation and community matters; and third, a social part for the community to interact freely.{{sfn|Afnan|2022}}

Each of the 19 months is given a name which is an attribute of God; some examples include Baháʼ (Splendour), ʻIlm (Knowledge), and Jamál (Beauty).{{sfn|Smith|2008|pp=188–190}} The Baháʼí week is familiar in that it consists of seven days, with each day of the week also named after an attribute of God. Baháʼís observe 11 [[Ascension of Baháʼu'lláh|Holy Days]] throughout the year, with work suspended on 9 of these. These days commemorate important anniversaries in the history of the religion.{{sfn|Smith|2008|p=188}}
