Ramadan, also known as Ramazan or Ramadhan, is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar and holds immense significance for Muslims worldwide. During this sacred month, Muslims fast from dawn to sunset, engaging in spiritual reflection, prayer, and acts of kindness.
The start of Ramadan in 1973 is anticipated to be on Wednesday, September 18. However, please note that the exact date may vary based on moon sightings and local religious authorities.
Observing Ramadan is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, and it commemorates the month in which the Quran, the holy book of Islam, was revealed to Prophet Muhammad.
During Ramadan, Muslims partake in Suhoor (pre-dawn meal) and Iftar (meal to break the fast at sunset). The month encourages self-discipline, spiritual growth, and empathy towards those less fortunate.
As the start of Ramadan approaches, communities come together for prayers, nightly Tarawih prayers, and charitable activities. It is a time of reflection, gratitude, and increased devotion to Allah.
For the most accurate and up-to-date information on the start date of Ramadan in 1973, please consult with your local mosque or Islamic authority.
