UAE’s Dubai Sehri Time and Iftar Time – Ramadan 2025

Muslims in the United Arab Emirates are preparing to sight the crescent moon marking the start of Ramadan 2025 on Friday, February 28, or Shaaban 29. This marks an important moment as the entire Muslim world is expected to sight the crescent moon on the same night, with fasting likely to begin on the same day across many countries.

Global Crescent Moon Sighting Across Multiple Countries

Countries including Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, India, Pakistan, USA, UK, Afghanistan, Nepal, Oman, Iraq, Syria, Bahrain, Yemen, Turkey, Egypt, Australia, New Zealand, Russia, Indonesia, Malaysia, and others have officially called upon their citizens to sight the Ramadan crescent moon. The collective sighting of the moon would ensure that Muslims around the world begin their fasting on the same day.

First Day of Ramadan: March 1 or 2, 2025

If the crescent moon is seen on Friday evening, Muslims will begin fasting on Saturday, March 1, 2025. If the moon is not sighted, Ramadan will commence on Sunday, March 2, 2025.

Importance of Sehri and Iftari Timings During Ramadan

During Ramadan, the timings for Sehri (pre-dawn meal) and Iftari (meal to break the fast) are crucial for Muslims. These timings help individuals know when to stop eating before dawn and when to break their fast in the evening.
