Ramadan 1448
Expected to begin on Monday 8 February 2027, subject to the sighting of the crescent. Choose your city for suhoor and iftar times.
1 Ramadan 1448 is expected on Monday 8 February 2027 by the Umm al-Qura calendar. Each country confirms it after looking for the crescent on the evening of Saturday 6 February 2027 (29 Sha‘ban). Some begin a day later.
The Hijri month begins when the new crescent is seen after sunset. Calendars like Umm al-Qura predict it; national bodies confirm it. The site shows the expected date until a country announces; then the site’s team moves that country’s dates by a day if needed.
