Do there exist any calendar programs that use the Islamic calendar?
If not, there's probably a reason for that -- it sounds to me like the
Islamic calendar is random enough that actually using it to tell time is
really hard. So hard that, for practical matters, I'm guessing that
nobody actually does it. (Not that nobody uses the calendar, just that
nobody tries to do scheduling with it -- people still use roman numerals
too, but they don't use them for doing math.)
I suspect you're trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist.
