When is Ramadan?
Rule: 1 Ramadan in the Islamic calendar.
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar, a month of fasting from dawn to sunset. Because the Islamic year is about 11 days shorter than the solar year, Ramadan starts about 11 days earlier each year.
The first evening prayers (taraweeh) are held the night before the first day of fasting.
