Muslims are preparing to mark the holy month with fasting and prayers as Ramadan 2022 is almost upon us.

Fasting during Ramadan is one of the five pillars of Islam – the fundamental rules worshippers must follow – and carries great significance during the holy month.

Muslims cannot eat or drink anything during the daylight hours of Ramadan, and are instead encouraged to reflect on their faith and relationship with Allah.

The dates of Ramadan are based on the lunar calendar, which means it falls slightly earlier each year.

Here is a full timetable for when fasting will take place in 2023.

When is Ramadan 2023?

In the UK, Ramadan 2023 will begin in the evening of Thursday 23 March and end the evening of Friday 21 April.

This means Eid ul-Fitr will be celebrated on Saturday 22 April.

The dates of Ramadan and Eid depend on the moon cycle, and when the new crescent moon is first sighted.

What is Ramadan?

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, and marks the time when the holy book of Islam, the Quran, is said to have been revealed to Prophet Muhammad by the angel Gabriel. It is marked with a month-long fast. Its name literally means “scorching heat” in Arabic.

Muslims are required to spend a period of 30 days abstaining from food and drink, including water, smoking and sexual intercourse, during daylight hours as a means of celebrating and reflecting on their faith.

Fasting during Ramadan is one of the five pillars of Islam along with the Shahadah (declaration of faith), Salat (prayer), Zakat (charity) and the Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca.

During Ramadan, there is an increased offering of the Salat, with Muslims giving thanks to God, while the fasting ritual allows them to understand the suffering of others.

Those observing the fast are encouraged to read the Quran and the holy text is recited at the Tarawih – special nightly prayers that are held throughout the month.

How does the moon sighting work?

Traditionally, Ramadan begins with the sighting of the crescent moon, which usually appears one night after the new moon, meaning the start date cannot be precisely predicted.

There is some debate as to whether the idea of a moon sighting should refer to you physically witnessing the moon in your region, which could be hampered by factors such as weather conditions, or whether to defer to sightings in Saudi Arabia – or the nearest Muslim country to you.

Many people choose to go with Saudi Arabia, which is home to Mecca.

Some people argue that technological advancements in astronomy mean that the rising of the new moon can be calculated with unprecedented accuracy, meaning that a standardised start date can be used for all Muslims worldwide, rather than having variations.

Since month of Ramadan is based on the lunar calendar, its position in the more widely used Gregorian calendar varies.
