Ramadan 2025 in Pakistan: All You Need to Know

For Muslims, Ramadan is the most significant month; they fast daily for the whole month worldwide. Observing the Saudi lunar calendar, Ramadan 1447 Hijri begins on March 01, 2025, in Pakistan and the rest of the world. During Ramadan, Insha’ Allah starts in Pakistan on Saturday, March 1, 2025. Allah SWT revealed the Quran to Prophet Muhammad SAW. The weeks of this holy month are a holy period for Muslims to pray to Allah SWT. Still, the exact date of Ramadan 2025 in Pakistan will rely on the moon sighting reported by the Ruet-e-Hilal Committee.

What is Ramadan?

Ramadan comes ninth among twelve months in the Islamic lunar calendar. Some say it connects to the burning of sins, while others think a Muslim feels heated from thirst. Some also say this burning refers to the love that one feels for God during Ramadan. So, all of these are proper in their ways. Muslims say Allah assigned this month for Muslims to fast.

Muslims are instructed to count their blessings, think of those less fortunate, and donate to causes. They are taught to experience hunger and what it is like not having food around. Muslims are urged to make an effort to establish a relationship with God. For a Muslim, praying while fasting is unique, in that instant, when hunger strikes and you pray to God, you experience extreme weakness and come to see your humanity.
