About Ramadan 2028
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and the month of fasting. According to the Umm al-Qura calendar, Ramadan 1449 AH begins on Friday, 28 January 2028; the first Tarawih prayer is held the evening before. The month has 29 days, so the last fast is on Friday, 25 February 2028 and Eid al-Fitr falls on Saturday, 26 February 2028.
In many countries the month begins only after the new crescent has been sighted on the 29th of Sha'ban, so Ramadan and Eid can start one day later than shown here. Read why Islamic dates differ between countries.
Fasting runs from Fajr, the true dawn, until Maghrib at sunset. Because Ramadan moves about 11 days earlier each year, fasts are getting shorter in the northern hemisphere as Ramadan moves into winter.
