The Hajj takes place from the 8th to the 12th of Zul-Hijjah which is the last month of the Hijri calendar. The most important out of the 5 days during which the rites of Hajj take place is the Yaum-al-Arafah, or the day of Arafat, is on the 9th of Zul-Hijjah. This is the day on which pilgrims camp in Arafat and the Hajj sermon takes place.

The Islamic or Hijri Calendar is a lunar calendar based on moon sightings. The actual advent of each month depends upon the physical sighting of the new moon. The corresponding Gregorian dates are estimates based upon astronomical calculations, endorsed by the Fiqh Council of North America. The Gregorian dates for Hajj change from year to year.

Hajj 2013 is expected to fall between October 13 and October 18, 2013.

Is hajj of 1981 hajj e Akbar?

Shia:If you mean akbar, I can answer you that, we have at least some hadis in this regard. In a hadis witch narrated from Imam Sadigh(AS) that he said: "the greater haj is yavm Al-Nahr (ead al-azha, 10'th of zelhajja') and the miner is umra'". Man la yahzor Al-Faghih v3 p376.It has been wrongly believed that if the 9th of Zil Hajja (the Day of Arfa) falls on Friday, it is Hajj-i-Akbar. Actually, Umra is Minor Hajj.
