Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, observed by Muslims around the world as a time for fasting, prayer, reflection, and community.
During this month, Muslims fast from dawn until sunset, refraining from food, drink, and other physical needs.
It is a time for spiritual growth, self-discipline, and empathy for those less fortunate.
In 2026, Ramadan will begin on the evening of Tuesday 17th February and end on the evening of Thursday, 19th March. The exact dates may vary depending on the sighting of the moon.
