Only one month remains before Ramadan 2025 starts its arrival. Astronomical calculations show Ramadan will begin during the first day of March in 2025 in the United Arab Emirates. A UAE astronomer named Ibrahim Al Jarwan identified February 28, 2025 as set to become the day when Ramadan begins its annual observance.
Muslims worldwide look forward to noticing the new moon because its sighting signals Ramadan’s official beginning in the Islamic calendar. During the ninth month of the Islamic calendar Muslims from around the world observe Ramadan with deep significance. Faithful people practice physical and spiritual submission through the sacred Islamic fasting practice which extends from dawn until sunset during this holy period. Ramadan this year brings a special feature to Muslims worldwide since it occurs during the winter period after a lapse of 24 years.
Ramadan brings concentrated spiritual activity to Muslim believers through obligatory devotion to prayer plus charitable acts and careful reflection of their faith. When Ramadhan starts the UAE experiences adjusted working-hour rules that affect both public service workers and private sector employees.
The vigilance for Sha’ban’s commencement set for Friday, January 31, 2025 began following the observation of the crescent moon on Wednesday, January 29. As the sacred occasion of Ramadan draws nearer Muslims show increasing enthusiasm for the spiritual collective moments that will characterize this holy period of the year.
