the_modified_date returns published date

by

I wanna display modified date instead of published date. I have this code in my theme:

echo '<li><i class="fa fa-clock-o"></i> <span class="post-date updated">' . get_the_date() . '</span></li>';

i changed it to this:

the_modified_date('j F Y', '<li><i class="fa fa-clock-o"></i> <span class="post-date updated">', '</span></li>');

but it still shows the published data.

my post is published on the 1st:

and I updated it on the 7th:

and the_modified_date() function, displays the published date.
am I doing something wrong? how can I fix this?

I think that you are using Parsidate plugin to convert dates to Hijri date. The plugin since the current version(2.2.2) returns the published date for both the_date and the_modified_date functions. This is a bug that i reported it to them. For now, you can use the wp-jalali plugin instead, that solved the problem for me.
