About Ramadan

Ramadan is a month when people fast from sunrise to sunset every day. This fasting is called Roza. The day starts with a pre-sunrise meal called sehri and ends with iftar, the evening meal that breaks the fast during Ramadan.

Date And Timings Of Ramadan

This year, Ramadan is expected to begin on the evening of February 28, 2025 (Friday), depending on the visibility of the crescent moon after 6:00 PM. If the moon is sighted on February 28, fasting will start on March 1 in Saudi Arabia and the UAE. However, if the moon is not seen, Ramadan will begin on March 2.

Significance

The Quran, the holy book of Islam, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad about 1,400 years ago on Laylat al-Qadr. This night is one of the five odd-numbered nights in the last ten days of Ramadan. During Ramadan, Muslims fast, meaning they do not eat or drink from sunrise until sunset. They start the fast with a pre-sunrise meal called sehri and break it at sunset with a meal known as iftar, usually held after the moon is seen.

Ramadan is one of the most important months in Islam. It is a time for Muslims around the world to focus on purification, self-discipline, and spiritual growth.

Greetings

During this month, people commonly greet each other with ‘Ramadan Mubarak’ and ‘Ramadan Kareem.’ These phrases wish the people a blessed month and a month filled with generosity, respectively.
