Ramadan

During Ramadan, Muslims fast during daylight hours, spend more time in prayer and give to charity, breaking the fast each evening with iftar. It moves about 11 days earlier each year because the Islamic calendar is lunar. Islamic dates depend on the sighting or calculation of the new moon, so they may shift by a day and can differ between communities. Dates shown follow the Fiqh Council of North America's published calendar; check with local mosques nearer the time.
