Summary
Ramadan is the ninth month of the lunar Hijri calendar, so it starts about 11 days earlier each Gregorian year. This calculator lists every Ramadan from 2015 to 2050 using the Umm al-Qura calendar of Saudi Arabia, which fixes the month from the astronomical new moon and moonset in Mecca. For each year it shows the conjunction (new moon) in UTC, the first and last day of fasting, Eid al-Fitr, the last ten nights, and how long the daily fast lasts from Fajr (dawn) to Maghrib (sunset) in major cities. Countries that wait for a local crescent sighting often start one day later, so treat the dates as the expected calendar and confirm with your local mosque or religious authority.
How it works
- Pick a Ramadan from the list (2030 has two). The calculator shows 1 Ramadan, the first taraweeh night (the evening before), the last fast, Eid al-Fitr and the countdown.
- Dates come from the Umm al-Qura calendar (the same tables your browser uses for the islamic-umalqura calendar). A month has 29 or 30 days.
- The new moon is computed with Meeus's lunar-phase algorithm (accurate to about a minute). The crescent is usually first visible one evening after the conjunction, which is why sighting-based starts can be a day later.
- For fasting hours, choose a city and a Fajr convention. Dawn is when the sun is that many degrees below the horizon (18° for the Muslim World League); Maghrib is sunset (upper limb at −0.833° with refraction).
Use cases
- Plan leave, travel or exams around the first and last day of Ramadan.
- Schedule iftar events or school timetables in the right week.
- See how long the fast will be in London, New York or Sydney in a given year.
- Find the expected Eid al-Fitr date for booking flights home.
- Look up which years Ramadan falls in winter or summer.
