When Does Ramadan Start in 2026?

Ramadan follows the Islamic lunar calendar, which is about 10-12 days shorter than the Gregorian (solar) calendar. This means Ramadan starts earlier each year. In 2026, Ramadan is expected to begin around Wednesday, February 18th, or Thursday, 19th, depending on the moon sighting (Hilal). The exact date will be confirmed by religious authorities in Saudi Arabia and local mosques and hilal commities.

Why Does Ramadan’s Date Change Every Year?

Since the Islamic calendar is based on the moon (354-355 days per year), Ramadan shifts forward by 10-11 days annually on the Gregorian calendar.

Ramadan 2026 is still several months away, but it’s never too early to prepare spiritually and physically. Keep an eye on moon sighting announcements as the date gets closer!
