Dates marked “Awaiting verification” use our astronomical planning estimates, not the named local body’s confirmation. UHC Ramadan forecast ↗ · UHC Eid forecast ↗. Follow your community’s announcement.

The Laylat al-Qadr column marks the beginning of the last ten nights (21 Ramadan), not a confirmed date for Laylat al-Qadr itself. If the first fast is 8 February, this begins at sunset on 27 February. Count from your community’s confirmed Ramadan start; seek Laylat al-Qadr on the odd nights. Sahih al-Bukhari 2017 ↗

Dates are Gregorian. Malaysia’s JAKIM and Perak calendars agree on the listed dates; both remain subject to the official announcement. Germany, Indonesia, the UK, US and Canada refer to the named communities or authorities. Indonesia’s public holidays do not confirm its religious Eid date. Why dates can differ ↗

Dates to keep in mind

The month, at a glance.

These provisional dates use an 8 February first fast. If your community starts on another day, count the nights from its confirmed start. Islamic nights begin at sunset.
