Ramadan 2024 Begins on Monday, March 11
Ramadan, one of the most revered months in Islam, holds profound significance as believers engage in acts of devotion, self-discipline, and charity. The sighting of the crescent moon, signifying the start of Ramadan, is a momentous occasion that unites Muslims globally in observance of their faith’s sacred traditions.
Throughout this auspicious month, individuals partake in fasting from dawn to dusk, reflecting on the teachings of the Quran, and engaging in additional prayers and acts of kindness. Ramadan also fosters a sense of communal solidarity as families and communities gather for iftar, the breaking of the fast at sunset, and participate in charitable initiatives to support those in need.
