Counting down to Ramadan Start
What Ramadan Start marks
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. It is observed by Muslims worldwide as a month of fasting (sawm), communal prayer (salah), reflection, study of the Quran, charity, and strengthening community ties. It is also the month in which the Quran is believed to have been revealed to the Islamic prophet Muhammad, known as Laylat al-Qadr. The annual observance of Ramadan is regarded as one of the five pillars of Islam and lasts 29 to 30 days, from one sighting of the crescent moon to the next.

Why this date says “tentative”
Ramadan Start follows a lunar or observation-based calendar, so its Gregorian date cannot be fixed far ahead. The day depends on a moon sighting or an official announcement, which is why calendar feeds — including the one in Google Calendar, where most people first see the label — publish an estimate marked (tentative). It is not an error: it is the calendar being honest that the date may still move by a day or two, and neighbouring countries can observe it on different days. Read the full explanation →
