Ramadan 2025 Roza Schedule: Will there be 29 fasts or 30 this Ramzan in India? When will Eid-ul-Fitr be celebrated?

Ramadan 2025 Roza Schedule, Eid-ul-Fitr Day and Date: The holy month of Ramadan is going. Muslims across the world consider it a holy month and observe a fast to receive Allah's blessings. Eating food or drinking liquid is forbidden during a fast. Ramadan is a month long, where the number of fasts can be 29 or 30 based on the crescent moon sighting. At the culmination of the month of Ramadan, Eid-ul-Fitr is celebrated across the world. 

Ramadan 2025: When did Ramadan start in India?

In India, Ramadan started on March 2, 2025.

In countries such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Pakistan, it started a day ago.

So, the day of the start of Ramadan and the end of it differ from region to region.

Ramadan 2025: Why are there no fixed numbers of fasts in Ramadan?

Since the month starts and ends on crescent moon sighting, the number of fasts may fluctuate by 1 day. It can be either 29 or 30. It can't be 28 or 31.

Ramadan 2025: Why is Eid-ul-Fitr's date not fixed?

The same logic applies for Eid-ul-Fitr day also.

The day of the crescent moon sighting can be advanced by a day.

In that condition, Eid may fall after 30-day fasts.

Otherwise, it falls after 29 days of fasts.

Ramadan 2025: Will there be 29 fasts or 30 this year?

So far, there is no development regarding this information.

Generally, Gulf countries announce the date for Eid-ul-Fitr, and Eid is celebrated the next day in India.

But it is not fixed as the Eid day is decided on the basis of the crescent moon sighting. 

Ramadan 2025: Will Eid-ul-Fitr be celebrated on March 31, April 1?

It may still take some days to decide it. However, so far, there is no information about the date of Eid. It can be either on March 31 or April 1. 

Ramadan 2025: Taraweeh prayers

Taraweeh prayers are offered along with night (Isha) prayers, in which the Quran is recited.

The Taraweeh prayers start a day before Ramzan and end a day before Eid-ul-Fitr.

So, the duration of Taraweeh prayers is from crescent moon to crescent moon.

Ramadan 2025: Eid-ul-Fitr prayers

Eid-ul-Fitr also has special prayers on the morning of the day.

The prayers happen in a congregation.

After the prayers, people greet each other and eat sweets to celebrate the occasion.
