I wish to convert a date from the Christian calender to the Hijri (Islamic) calender. I am using XSLT 2.0 with Saxon 8. I have tried various permutations and differences of the following:

<xsl:sequence select="format-date(current-date(), '[Y١] [Mn] [D١]', 'Islamic', 'SH', 'SH')"/>

This prints the year and day in arabic but remains in the Christian calender. The character ١ doesn't seem to work with [Mn] either. Can anyone advise what I should be doing here? Does Saxon support the arabic calender and does it support other calenders?

Thanks

Tom
