What Is Ramadan?

Ramadan (رمضان) is the ninth month of the Islamic (Hijri) calendar and the holiest month in Islam. It commemorates the month in which the Quran was first revealed to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).

During Ramadan, Muslims observe Sawm — one of the Five Pillars of Islam — by fasting from dawn to sunset. This includes abstaining from food, drink, smoking, and other physical needs during daylight hours.

The month is also a time for increased prayer, charity (Zakat), self-reflection, and community gathering. The end of Ramadan is marked by the joyful celebration of Eid al-Fitr (عيد الفطر).

✨ Laylat al-Qadr 2096 (Night of Power)

Laylat al-Qadr (ليلة القدر) is the holiest night in Islam, believed to be when the first verses of the Quran were revealed. It falls on one of the odd nights during the last 10 days of Ramadan — traditionally the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, or 29th night. Worship on this night is considered better than a thousand months of worship (Quran 97:3).

Frequently Asked Questions About Ramadan 2096

When does Ramadan 2096 start and end?

Ramadan 2096 starts on Sunday, December 16 and ends on Tuesday, January 15. Eid al-Fitr is expected on Wednesday, January 16.

How is the start of Ramadan determined?

The start of Ramadan is determined by the sighting of the new crescent moon (hilal) marking the 1st of the Islamic month of Ramadan. Some countries follow local moon sighting, while others follow astronomical calculations or the Saudi Arabian announcement.

Who is exempt from fasting during Ramadan?

Those exempt include: children who haven't reached puberty, the elderly, pregnant or breastfeeding women, travelers on long journeys, those who are physically or mentally ill, and women during menstruation. Many must make up missed fasts later (Qada) or provide Fidyah (feeding a poor person for each missed day).

Why does Ramadan move to different dates each year?

The Islamic Hijri calendar is a lunar calendar with approximately 354 days — about 11 days shorter than the 365-day Gregorian solar calendar. This causes Ramadan to shift earlier by roughly 11 days each year, cycling through all four seasons over a period of about 33 years.

What is the significance of Eid al-Fitr?

Eid al-Fitr (عيد الفطر), meaning "Festival of Breaking the Fast," is celebrated on the 1st of Shawwal immediately after Ramadan ends. It includes special prayers, giving of Zakat al-Fitr (charity), wearing new clothes, and gathering with family and friends for feasts and celebrations.
