Ramadan 1,448 AH (2,027 CE) is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar — a month of fasting from dawn (Fajr) to sunset (Maghrib), nightly Taraweeh prayers, increased Quran recitation, charity, and spiritual reflection. The blessed month culminates in Laylat al-Qadr (the Night of Power), believed to fall on one of the odd nights in the last ten days, and ends with the celebration of Eid al-Fitr.

Suhoor, Iftar & Laylat al-Qadr

Suhoor

The pre-dawn meal eaten before Fajr. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: 'Eat Suhoor, for in Suhoor there is blessing.' It is recommended to delay Suhoor close to Fajr.

Iftar

The meal at sunset that breaks the fast, traditionally eaten just after Maghrib. Sunnah is to break fast with dates and water before the Maghrib prayer.

Laylat al-Qadr

The Night of Power, better than a thousand months. Sought in the odd nights of the last ten days of Ramadan, especially the 27th. A night of intense worship, dua, and Quran.

Frequently Asked Questions

When does Ramadan 1448 start?
Ramadan is the 9th month of the Islamic Hijri calendar. The exact start depends on local moon sighting in your country, so the date may shift by a day. Qabasi shows the Umm al-Qura calendar dates as a reliable reference; check with your local mosque for the official confirmed date.
What are Suhoor and Iftar times?
Suhoor is the pre-dawn meal eaten before the Fajr prayer call (when fasting begins). Iftar is the meal at sunset that breaks the fast, taken at Maghrib. Exact times depend on your city's latitude and the time of year — pick your city above to get accurate times for every day of Ramadan.
Is Imsak the same as Fajr?
Imsak is a precautionary time a few minutes before Fajr to stop eating, observed by some Muslims. Technically, fasting begins at Fajr (true dawn). Most modern Imsakiyya calendars list both times — eating must stop at Fajr at the latest.
When is Laylat al-Qadr?
Laylat al-Qadr (the Night of Power) is sought in the odd nights of the last ten days of Ramadan: the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, or 29th night. The 27th night is most commonly held to be Laylat al-Qadr in many traditions, but Muslims are encouraged to seek it on all odd nights through prayer, Quran, and dua.
Who is exempt from fasting?
Fasting is obligatory on adult Muslims who are physically and mentally able. Exemptions include children before puberty, the elderly who cannot fast, the sick, travelers, pregnant or breastfeeding women, and women during menstruation or post-natal bleeding. Those who break their fast for a valid reason make up the missed days later or pay fidya if unable.
