What day of the week dose the week start with?

Maybe I'm overthinking this. I want to send a local notification every Monday at 9am until some condition is met. I know this can be done by setting the weekday and hour components of a DateComponents. The problem I'm having is the value would I pass to weekday depends on the Calendar the DateComponents is using. Which if I understand correctly depends on the user's settings. For instance if the user's calendar week starts on a Sunday I would pass a 1 to weekday but if the week starts on a Saturday I would pass 2.

My question is how do I account for things like timezone, daylight savings, and week start day?

Weekday units are the number go 1 through 7, where 1 is Sunday, 2 is Monday... And this won't never change.

When user changes setting, only the calendar.firstWeekday will change.

E.g. if the user's calendar week starts on Sunday, firstWeekday = 1 else if start on Monday, firstWeekday = 2
