Ramadan 2026
Ramadan 2026 with Waduha
This Ramadan, Waduha continues its work across Pakistan, supporting families, children, and communities facing hardship. Ramadan is a month of reflection, responsibility, and generosity. During this sacred time, we work to ensure that zakat, sadaqah, and other charitable obligations reach people who need them most, with care and dignity. We understand the trust placed in us, by the people we serve, by those who give, and ultimately before Allah.
What Is Ramadan?
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar. During Ramadan, adult Muslims fast from dawn until sunset. Fasting includes abstaining from food, drink, and harmful behaviour. Acts of worship such as prayer, recitation of the Qur’an, and charity are encouraged throughout the month.
When Is Ramadan 2026?
Ramadan in 2026 is expected to begin on Tuesday 17 February 2026 and end on the evening of Wednesday 18 March 2026, depending on the sighting of the moon.
When Will Ramadan Start in 2026?
Ramadan officially begins when the month of Shaban ends and the new moon of Ramadan is sighted. For 2026, Ramadan is expected to start on Tuesday 17 February, subject to moon sighting.
When Will Ramadan End in 2026?
Ramadan ends with the sighting of the moon that marks the beginning of Shawwal.
When to Stop Fasting in Ramadan 2026?
The last day of fasting in Ramadan 2026 is expected to be Wednesday 18 March. Because the Islamic calendar is lunar, the exact end depends on the sighting of the moon.
When Is Eid ul-Fitr 2026?
Eid ul-Fitr in 2026 is expected to fall on Thursday 19 March 2026, depending on the sighting of the moon. Eid begins after sunset on the previous evening, with prayers and celebrations taking place the following day.
When Is Laylatul Qadr?
Laylatul Qadr, also referred to as the Night of Power, is one of the most important and sacred nights in the Islamic calendar. With Ramadan upon us, we can find laylatul qadr in the last 10 nights of Ramadan. Prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him) said: “Search for the night of qadr in the odd nights of the last 10 days of Ramadan.”
Charity During Ramadan
The Prophet ﷺ was generous throughout the year, and his generosity increased during Ramadan. Charity during Ramadan holds special significance. Zakat, sadaqah, fidya, kaffarah, and fitrana are all ways to support those in need during this blessed month.
