How?
Arafah doesn't have a set day kkk. Since we don't follow the Islamic calendar in the west, Arafah day falls on different dates every year

It has a set day
Today is his birthday
Today is arafah
Guess you'll never have your birthday and arafah on the same day
omgg actually wait how can I forget the biggest birthday party ever made when I was turning 11 in hargeisa. I think i was thinking of the birthdays I had in the uk, we had a whole bus to ourselves that picked us up from grandma house to all the way to mansoor hotel (if you know you know) and had family members, birthday cake i blew and delicious food, even some white guy there was suprised with how spoilt we were loool

Read my post again and see the context. This is what you said.
His birthday falls on the same day as Arafah this year, but he wasn’t born on a Arafah day.
In any case, let me explain for you. I’m well aware of the fact that Arafat has a set date, but that’s according to Islamic/Hijri calendar (as I hinted at). However, birthdays are based the western/Gregorian calendar. The former is about 11 days shorter than the latter calendar. Meaning that despite the Arafah day being a set day, it varies when you look at the calendar we commonly use on a regular basis, hence a different date for Arafah in the Gregorian calendar every year.

We should ask him i assumed he's talking about the Al-hijra calendar not the kuffar one.

No, I made that assumption. Birthdays are (by default) based on the Gregorian calendar and not the Hijra calendar. It’s just the way it is sxb. Most people who follow the Islamic calendar don’t even celebrate nor acknowledge their birth dates, which ironically would an oxymoron if you indeed do

It means the day you were born in
Muslims don't celebrate the day they were born in
So i assumed that he was born in the day of arafaha.
Wait why wouldn't people who follow the al hijra calendar acknowledge their birth dates?!

I stand corrected. Nothing is wrong with acknowledging, I shouldn’t have use it as it was not what I wanted to imply in the context.
