Ramadan 2025 Date in Saudi Arabia: When Is Ramzan Starting in KSA? Check Tentative Dates

Mumbai, January 31: Ramadan 2025 is nearly a month away from now. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) welcomed Shabaan (Shaban), the month before Ramadan or Ramzan, on Friday, January 31. Following the completion of Shabaan, Ramadan shall commence. The exact date marking beginning of Ramadan 2025 will be determined following the moon sighting ritual. If you are looking for “Ramadan 2025 date” in Saudi Arabia online, this article has tentative dates from when the Islamic holy month is expected to begin.

Before we disclose tentative dates for the start of Ramadan, it may be noted that the Islamic calendar is based on lunar cycle. It simple means an Islamic month lasts for either 29 or 30 days. On the evening of 29th day of each month, Muslims look for the crescent moon. If the moon is sighted, the ongoing month concludes and a new month begins from the next day. If the moon is not sighted, a new month commences after the ongoing month completes 30 days.

Ramadan 2025 Date: When Is Ramadan 2025 Starting in Saudi Arabia?

As mentioned above, the Shabaan month started from January 31 in Saudi Arabia. Thus, 29th of Shabaan shall fall on February 28. If the moon is sighted on February 28, Ramadan 2025 would begin from March 1 in Saudi Arabia. If the moon remains invisible, Shabaan shall complete 30 days on March 1. In this case, Ramadan would commence from March 2.

What Is Ramadan? Why Is It Important to Muslims Worldwide?

Unlike general perception, Ramadan or Ramzan is not a festival. It is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. This month holds significance for Muslims because it is believed that the holy Quran was revealed to prophet Muhammad during this period. During Ramadan, Muslims abstain from food, drink, and other physical needs from dawn till dusk, everyday. Ramadan Explained: Why and How Do Muslims Fast? Are There Exemptions From Fasting? What Are Some Cultural and Social Traditions Associated With Ramadan?

Fasting in Ramadan, also known as Roza, is mandatory for all adult Muslims, unless they are sick, travelling, are having their menstrual cycle, are pregnant, diabetic or elderly. It is intended to help Muslims learn self-discipline and self-restraint. When Ramadan month ends, Muslims celebrate Eid al-Fitr or Eid Ul Fitr. Eid al-Fitr is one of the two festivals celebrated by Muslims globally.

New Year 2025 Funny Memes and New Year Resolution Jokes: Hilarious Memes That Capture the Universal Struggle of Starting Fresh and Then… Not

New Year 2025 is here! The season of fresh starts, ambitious promises, and the best intentions… that inevitably dissolve by mid-January. Every year, we set ourselves up for greatness with a list of resolutions—vowing to hit the gym, eat healthy, and finally clean out that drawer full of random receipts and expired coupons. But somehow, by the time we reach February, we’re back to binge-watching Netflix with a bag of chips in hand. Naturally, the internet has no mercy and turns these fleeting resolutions into hilarious memes that capture the universal struggle of starting fresh and then… not. New Year 2025 Resolutions: ‘New Year, New Me’ – How To Manifest Your Resolutions Into Reality? Easy Steps To Follow and Achieve Your Goals.

The quintessential New Year’s resolution. The gym membership is renewed, the new workout gear is purchased, and you’ve got your playlist ready to pump you up. Fast forward to January 3rd: you’ve managed to “accidentally” nap through your alarm, and the gym bag you bought is now just an expensive storage bin for your laundry. Or how can we forget—the promise of healthy eating? The first few days of the year, we’re all in. Salads, smoothies, low-carb this, keto that. But by day five, you’re standing in front of the fridge, debating whether the leftover pizza qualifies as a “protein-rich” meal.

Everyone starts the year with lofty goals to be more productive—organise your day, tackle that to-do list, and finally actually finish that project. But then you get distracted by the endless cycle of scrolling through social media and wondering why you never put your phone down. We’ve all promised ourselves that we’ll become morning people this year. We’ll wake up at 5 a.m., start the day with meditation, and have our productivity peak by 8 a.m. In reality, the snooze button becomes your best friend, and your mornings are spent questioning why you ever thought waking up before 10 a.m. was a good idea.

We have all been there, haven’t we? Let’s take a look at some funny New Year’s resolutions memes and jokes taking social media by storm:

At the end of the day, New Year’s resolutions are like that perfect Instagram selfie: full of potential, full of hope, and possibly full of filters. The truth is, most of us fall off the resolution bandwagon quicker than we can say, “I’ll start tomorrow.” But hey, at least we’ve got memes to make it all feel relatable. So, here’s to the New Year—filled with even more funny, failed resolutions and the joy of knowing we’re all in this together.
