About Ramadan 2026
Ramadan 2026 will be a special time for the world's nearly 2 billion Muslims. Beginning in mid-February, this year's holy month falls during late winter in the Northern Hemisphere, meaning shorter fasting days compared to summer Ramadans.
The 30-day period of dawn-to-sunset fasting commemorates the first revelation of the Quran to Prophet Muhammad. Muslims worldwide will gather for pre-dawn meals (suhoor), break their fasts at sunset (iftar), perform extra prayers (tarawih), and increase their charitable giving.
Whether you're preparing spiritually for the holy month, planning iftar gatherings, or simply tracking when Ramadan begins, our countdown helps you prepare for this blessed time.
