Ramadan This Year

5-9-2001 | IslamWeb

Question:

When is Ramadan this year?

Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

You should know that Islamically the beginning of Ramadan must be confirmed by sighting the new moon of the month of Ramadan.

This is evidenced by the saying of the Prophet  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ): “Fast when you see it (the new crescent) and end the fast (at the end of the month) when you see it”. [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

Allah knows best.
