सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि

In Pakistan, people often use the Islamic calendar for religious purposes. If someone asks for the date during Ramadan, they might be expecting the lunar date. Urdu speakers in India use the Gregorian calendar for all official work, but Urdu newspapers always print both the Gregorian and Hijri dates on the masthead. In the UK or USA, Urdu speakers often use the English word 'date' within the Urdu sentence structure. In classical Urdu literature, 'Tareekh' is often used to mean 'chronogram'—a poetic way of recording a date using the Abjad system.
