Mumbai, April 9: Ramzan 2023 commenced in Mumbai, Kolkata, Lucknow, Delhi and other parts of India on March 24. During Ramzan or Ramadan, the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar, Muslims observe fast (Roza) daily from dawn till dusk. The pre-dawn meal is known as Sehri and the food consumed to break the fast is called Iftar. Sehri and Iftar timings vary from city to city based on sunrise and sunset.

As per the Islamic calendar, a new month begins upon the sighting of a crescent moon on the 29th day of the month. If the moon is not sighted, the month completes 30 days and a new month begins the next day. In India, the moon was not sighted on April 22 which was the 29th of Shaban month. Hence, Shabam month ended on March 13 and Ramzan began on March 24. Eid 2023 Date: When Is Eid al-Fitr Moon Sighting? Know Ramadan Chand Raat Date in India, Saudi Arabia and Other Countries.
