Rabi al-Akhir or Rabi al-Thani?
Both names are correct and mean the same month. Saudi Arabia uses Rabi al-Akhir in the Umm al-Qura calendar and official documents; many Arabic calendars write Rabi al-Thani. Both Rabi months are named after spring, the season they fell in when the month names were set.
