Frequently Asked Questions
What is Ramadan and when is it expected to begin in 2027?
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar (Hijri) calendar and is observed by Muslims worldwide as a month of fasting, prayer, and spiritual reflection. Because the Islamic calendar follows the moon, the start of Ramadan is confirmed only by the sighting of the new crescent moon, so the date shifts roughly 10-11 days earlier each Gregorian year. Ramadan 2027 is expected to begin around February 8, though the precise start remains subject to moon sighting.
What theme of forgiveness runs through these Ramadan status wishes?
"Ramadan is the greatest opportunity to ask Allah for forgiveness. Thank him for his blessings and for keeping you alive until this minute." And similarly, "Ramadan is the month to seek forgiveness for our sins. May Allah accept our prayers and pardon our wrongdoings." Both reflect Ramadan's central purpose as a month of seeking Allah's forgiveness and mercy.
Why do Muslims fast during this month?
Fasting during Ramadan, known as Sawm, is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, obligatory for adult Muslims of sound health. From dawn (Fajr) to sunset (Maghrib), observant Muslims abstain from food, drink, and other physical needs. The practice is meant to cultivate self-discipline, taqwa (God-consciousness), gratitude, and empathy for those who face hunger and hardship year-round.
How do these status lines connect Ramadan specifically to the Qur'an?
"The key to success is reflected in the Qur’an. May we find blessing and guidance as we recite it altogether in the Ramadan Days?" Ramadan is the month in which the Qur'an is believed to have been revealed, which is why its recitation and nightly Taraweeh prayers are especially central during this period.
What are Suhoor and Iftar?
Suhoor is the meal eaten before dawn to sustain the day's fast, while Iftar is the meal that breaks the fast at sunset, traditionally begun with dates and water in keeping with a practice attributed to the Prophet Muhammad. Iftar gatherings are often communal, bringing families, neighbors, and mosques together to share food after the day's fast.
What blessings do Ramadan status wishes commonly ask for on behalf of family and health?
"May Allah bless you with wealth and happiness and give you a healthy life." Wishes for wealth, happiness and good health are common in Ramadan greetings, framed as blessings sought from Allah during this sacred month.
What special acts of worship mark Ramadan besides fasting?
Nights during Ramadan often include Taraweeh, extended congregational prayers held after the night prayer, during which the Quran is frequently recited in full over the course of the month. The last ten nights hold particular significance, as they contain Laylat al-Qadr (the Night of Decree), believed to be the night the Quran's revelation began - considered better than a thousand months in worship.

How does Ramadan conclude, and what follows it?

Before Eid prayers, Muslims are expected to give Zakat al-Fitr, a charitable donation ensuring that those in need can also celebrate.
