A month of faith

Ramadan is a sacred time of devotion, self-discipline, and unity. It follows a unique rhythm of prayer, fasting, and kindness, with each culture adding its own traditions to this global celebration.

Culture & community

Ramadan unites people through shared meals, worship, and generosity. While its essence remains universal, cultural traditions enrich the experience, making it both deeply personal and beautifully diverse.

Traditions & timings

Guided by the lunar calendar, Ramadan begins with the sighting of the crescent moon. Key rituals, from Suhoor (pre-dawn meal) to Iftar (breaking the fast), structure each day, fostering spiritual reflection and connection.
