About this day
Islamic Unity Week runs from 12 to 17 Rabi al-Awwal, a modern designation rather than a classical observance. It does not appear on the mainstream Australian calendar, and it is a framing kept in some communities rather than a fixture of the year. The Centre lists it without keeping a programme for it.
