Get English names for Arabic Months
0
I'm trying to display Arabic Islamic Months in a list box but in English
So that Output Month in Arabic today is ربيع اول
which is in English is November
but what I want is Rabī al-Awwal
or just like Microsoft Rabi I like in this link
I have found this question which asks for nearly what i want but in objective-C
which I don't understand and can't use , what I need is code in VB.Net or C#
PS: nothing of these lines give me what I want
Console.WriteLine(Now.Date.ToString("MMMM", New CultureInfo("ar-SA")))
Console.WriteLine(Now.Date.ToString("MMMM", New CultureInfo("ar-EG")))
Console.WriteLine(Now.Date.ToString("MMMM", New CultureInfo("en-US")))
Console.WriteLine(Now.Date.ToString("MMMM", New CultureInfo("en-SA")))
Edit: The Output is
ربيع الأول
نوفمبر

docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/datetime/… may be of use - it discusses datetimes in different calendars (which I think is what you are talking about here).

I already saw this link , but it doesn't have any sample code for what I want , I already wrote sample code and its output that uses cultures but It didn't meet my needs, the only sample that meets my needs is the one I mentioned in my question stackoverflow.com/questions/13109905/…

If i understand you correctly, you are looking for something that provides romanization of Arab words (months). I can't really help you but try searching the web for libraries that do romanization of Arab (it could perhaps be difficult to find free libraries for such purposes, though...

If you can't find any library, you might perhaps want to write your own Arab -> Romanization converter. You could use the Arab character -> Romanization mapping information provided here: unicode.org/repos/cldr/trunk/common/transforms/Arabic-Latin.xml (however, i am not sure, if this transformation/mapping table exactly matches the Romanization variant you are after)

@Blackwood, you might be right. Perhaps OP should look into usingSystem.Globalization.HijriCalendarorSystem.Globalization.UmAlQuraCalendar...
