Ramadan 2025 Moon Sighting: The month of Ramadan is one of the holiest months in Islam, coming after Sha'ban. Muslims eagerly await Ramadan throughout the year. Now, in just a few moments, Ramadan will begin, and the long wait will finally be over. As the day comes to an end, all eyes are fixed on the sky because the sighting of the crescent moon will mark the beginning of this sacred month, and fasting (Roza) will commence.  

Among the twelve months of the Islamic calendar, Ramadan is considered the most sacred and blessed. Fasting (Roza) holds great significance in this month. During this holy period, Muslims engage in prayers to Allah, recite the Quran, and perform acts of kindness to seek Allah's blessings. But before that, let’s find out when Ramadan begins this year and on which day Muslims will observe the first fast.

When Will Ramadan Begin: March 1 Or 2?

The expected start date of the Ramadan month is either February 28 or March 1. However, the official date will only be confirmed after the moon is sighted. Almost all Islamic festivals and observances are determined based on the sighting of the moon, and Ramadan is no exception. The holy month begins when the new crescent moon is visible.  

If the Ramadan moon is sighted today, February 28, then the first fast (Roza) will be observed on March 1. However, if the moon is not visible today, fasting will commence on March 2.

Why Is The Month Of Ramadan Special?

The month of Ramadan holds great significance in Islam. According to Islamic belief, it was during this sacred month that Prophet Mohammed received the verses of the Quran from Allah. Throughout Ramadan, Muslims observe fasting from sunrise to sunset. Along with fasting, this month is considered a special time to embrace spirituality and unity. Fasting during Ramadan purifies both the body and soul. Acts of worship and good deeds performed during this month bring Allah’s blessings and divine grace.
