"Hijri" calendar was created by Umar not by the Prophet. Ramadan is not part of a calender but fasting according to lunar cyle year.
Sana is more likely to be the seasonal year for future calculations, as mentioned to Yousuf(AS) about impending dry years. We need to understand these two types of years instead of looking at Jewish practice which, in the past, only added lots of hadiths.

No , i think what member Pazuzu mentioned is deeply recommended , to look and study comparatively that subject and other debated-ed subject to the people of the book scriptures (The Torah & The Evangel التوراه و الأنجيل )
Look at this :
6:153 And this is My path, a straight one. "So follow it, and do not follow the other paths lest they divert you from His path. That is what He has enjoined you to that you may be righteous."
6:154 Then We gave Moses the Book, to complete for those who do right, and to fully detail all things, and a guide and mercy that they may believe in the meeting of their Rabb / Lord.
6:155 And this is a Book that We have sent down which is blessed/ Mobarak , so follow it and be aware, that you may receive mercy.
6:156 Lest you say: "The Book was only sent down
to two groups before us, and we were
unaware of their study!"
ثُمَّ آتَيْنَا مُوسَى الْكِتَابَ تَمَامًا عَلَى الَّذِيَ أَحْسَنَ وَتَفْصِيلاً لِّكُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَهُدًى وَرَحْمَةً لَّعَلَّهُم بِلِقَاء رَبِّهِمْ يُؤْمِنُونَ
وَهَذَا كِتَابٌ أَنزَلْنَاهُ مُبَارَكٌ فَاتَّبِعُوهُ وَاتَّقُواْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ
أَن تَقُولُواْ إِنَّمَا أُنزِلَ الْكِتَابُ عَلَى
طَائِفَتَيْنِ مِن قَبْلِنَا وَإِن كُنَّا عَن
دِرَاسَتِهِمْ لَغَافِلِينَ
This verse is clearly mentioning that the follower of the recent book " the Quran" should be aware of the study of the books that was sent before .
There was a misguiding in the culture/ literature during ages among the people where the Quran spread-ed that the
" people of the book اهل الكتاب" are all misguided , this is a delicate topic and need a very tiny judgement/ comparative eyes to pick up the truth from mountains of falsehood .
