Your point is separate, yes a calender can "start" from where ever. The islamic calender has a start date (BUT STILL FOLLOWS THE MOON). It's like the international calender "starts" from 2018 years ago because of jesus birth. That doesn't mean it isn't following the sun.
That's the opinion of the Sunni sect, based on Hadith books.
The Quran has nothing about prohibiting the prayer in certain times.
My point has nothing to do with lunar or solar basis of the calendar. My point was that you mentioned that "Prophet Mohammed was the inventor of the calendar"; but it's a wrong statement because the calendar was introduced after the Prophet's death, by the Caliph Umar Ibn Al-Khattab.
