Ramadan begins on the 1st of Ramadan in the Hijri calendar, which shifts approximately 10-11 days earlier each Gregorian year. Our calendar shows the exact countdown to Ramadan with both Hijri and Gregorian dates. The actual start may vary by 1-2 days based on moon sighting in your location.
The Hijri calendar is lunar-based (354-355 days/year) while Gregorian is solar-based (365-366 days/year). Hijri months are 29-30 days, determined by moon phases. Islamic occasions move ~11 days earlier each Gregorian year. The Hijri year started in 622 CE with Prophet Muhammad's migration to Medina.
The 12 Hijri months are: Muharram, Safar, Rabi' al-Awwal, Rabi' al-Thani, Jumada al-Awwal, Jumada al-Thani, Rajab, Sha'ban, Ramadan, Shawwal, Dhu al-Qi'dah, and Dhu al-Hijjah. Each month has religious significance, with Ramadan (fasting month) and Dhu al-Hijjah (Hajj month) being especially sacred.
Islamic holidays follow the lunar Hijri calendar, which is about 11 days shorter than the solar Gregorian calendar. This causes Islamic dates to shift earlier by approximately 10-11 days each year in the Gregorian calendar, cycling through all seasons over a 33-year period.
Eid al-Fitr falls on 1st Shawwal (day after Ramadan ends) and Eid al-Adha falls on 10th Dhu al-Hijjah. Our calendar displays exact countdown timers and both Hijri and Gregorian dates. Actual celebration may vary by 1-2 days depending on moon sighting in your region.
Laylat al-Qadr (Night of Power) is the holiest night of the year, when the Quran was first revealed. It falls during the last 10 nights of Ramadan, most likely on an odd-numbered night (21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, or 29th). Many Muslims observe it on the 27th of Ramadan.
