It has been a year, by the Muslim calendarLast time I checked, the Earth orbited the sun once every 365.25 days or so. It didn't go any faster or slower for Muslims than for the rest of us; a year is a year.

As just another of the hints that Mohammad might have been making it up as he went along was that he set the Moslem year at 354 days Why 354 days? The only answer is: why not 354 days?
The people with common sense in the crowd when he announced this little gem were thinking, "Wow, what a moron." Unfortunately, they all got their throats cut when they actually said it out loud.
