Jumbangla Desk: There is a possibility that the holy month of Ramadan will start in February 2025. Various media in the Middle East said that the moon of Ramadan can be seen on the evening of February 28, 2025. As such, March 1st is the first fast. The whole thing depends on seeing the moon. If the moon of Ramadan is not seen on the evening of February 28, then this holy month will start from March 1 in various countries of the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia.
RAMADAN
Arabic years are calculated according to the lunar calendar. When a month starts depends on the sighting of the moon. And because of this, the timing of Ramadan changes every year. After the sighting of the Ramadan moon, the Muslims perform the Tarawih prayer that night. Then do Sehri before sunrise and complete the fast with Iftar after sunset.
In many countries of the world, seeing the moon with the naked eye is still preferred. Especially in Middle East and South Asian countries. But in some countries including Australia, New Zealand, the start and end dates of Ramadan are given based on calculations. In those countries there is no waiting to see the moon with naked eyes.
