One example of efforts to realize the global Islamic calendar is two calendar system concepts, namely the local hijri calendar with a single global hijri calendar. In this regard, Muslims differ in their views in response to the idea of the concept of unification. using theoretical studies from library research materials including astronomical theories and the results of the thoughts of astronomers or Falak, the decision of the world isbath trial. From the results of this study, it can be concluded that efforts to realize an established Islamic calendar and unite the ummah. The new Indonesian Hisab Rukyat criteria need to be proposed based on Indonesian rukyat data supported by international astronomical criteria based on consideration of the main confounding factors, namely the contrast of light around the sun and twilight light above the horizon.
