Ramadan 2027: Dates, Countdown and Calendar
When Is Ramadan 2027?
Ramadan 2027 begins with the first fast on Monday, February 8, 2027. The first Taraweeh prayer is the evening before, on Sunday, February 7. The calendar below follows the month day by day through Eid al-Fitr on Tuesday, March 9, 2027.
Ramadan Countdown
The countdown shows how many days remain until the first fast of Ramadan 2027. It counts whole days, not hours and minutes, because fasting begins at dawn and dawn arrives at a different clock time in every place.
Use it as a simple marker for getting ready: setting up your meal routine, arranging work and school, and planning when your household will pray Taraweeh.

Ramadan 2027 in the USA
Ramadan 2027 in the USA is kept by local time, so fasting starts at dawn and ends at sunset where you live, and those times differ from state to state. When Ramadan 2027 starts for your community is a decision for your own mosque. The calendar on this page gives you a clear date to plan around.
Planning around work, school or travel? Mark Sunday evening, February 7, and Monday, February 8, first. Then ask your mosque three things: which day it begins, when Taraweeh is held, and how Eid prayers will be arranged.
Prepare Your Family for Ramadan
Ramadan is a good time to build a daily Quran habit, and a few minutes each day is a steady place to start. You can read the Quran online with the Quran reader, at your own pace. If you would like a teacher to guide the reading, Quran reading classes are one-to-one and online.
Tahir Quran Academy offers one-to-one online Quran learning. To try a lesson with a teacher, request a free trial. The academy will follow up with you after you send your request.

Does Ramadan begin in the evening or on the first fasting day?
Both, in different senses. In Islamic timekeeping, each day begins at sunset, so the first night of Ramadan starts on the evening before the first fast. On the selected calendar, that is Sunday evening, February 7, 2027, when Taraweeh begins. Fasting itself starts at dawn on Monday, February 8, after the pre-dawn sehri meal, and continues until iftar at sunset.
Why might communities begin Ramadan on different dates?
The Islamic month follows the moon, and communities use different methods to decide when a new month starts. Some follow astronomical calculation, like the calculation used for the calendar on this page. Others follow a local moon sighting, and some follow sightings announced overseas. These methods can place the first fast a day apart. Follow the date your mosque announces.
Will Ramadan last 29 or 30 days?
A lunar month lasts 29 or 30 days, so Ramadan can end on either count. The selected calendar uses 29 days, which places Eid al-Fitr on March 9. A 30th fast, on March 9, would move Eid al-Fitr to March 10. Your mosque will announce which applies as the month closes.
