Ramadan is coming — how many days do you have left to prepare? Watch the countdown tick down to the minute, and know exactly when the holy month begins wherever you are.
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and is observed by Muslims worldwide as a month of fasting, prayer, reflection, and community. During Ramadan, Muslims fast from dawn until sunset, abstaining from food, drink, and other physical needs. It is a time for spiritual growth, self-discipline, and increased devotion.
Ramadan begins with the sighting of the new crescent moon and lasts 29 or 30 days. The exact date varies each year in the Gregorian calendar because the Islamic calendar is lunar. This countdown helps you prepare for the holy month by showing exactly how much time remains.
If today is January 15, 2025, and Ramadan starts on February 28, 2025, there are 44 days remaining. That gives you over 6 weeks to prepare spiritually, plan your schedule, and set meaningful goals for the holy month.
