With 31 days, March 2025 has four full weeks plus 3 extra days, so Monday, Saturday and Sunday occur five times; every other weekday occurs four times. It has five Saturdays and five Sundays, so 10 weekend days.
March 1 is day 60 of the year, so March 2025 covers day numbers 060 to 090. In the Umm al-Qura Islamic calendar, 1 Ramadan 1446 AH falls on March 1 and 1 Shawwal 1446 AH falls on March 30 (computed; where months begin with the sighting of the new crescent, the start can differ by a day).
