Bahrain Ramadan moon 2024
Ramadan is a significant month in the Islamic calendar, observed by millions of Muslims around the world with fasting, prayer, and charitable acts.
Ramadan is the ninth month in the Islamic lunar calendar. With 12 months and either 354 or 355 days in the Islamic year the corresponding date is slightly different each year.
Ramadan 2024 will only officially begin when a moon-sighting committee confirms it has seen the crescent moon.
