Counting down to Ramadan
This tool uses your browser's local calendar date — not GPS — to count whole days until the next estimated 1 Ramadan. Pick Umm al-Qura (Saudi-aligned tables) or tabular civil Hijri math. The default method is Umm al-Qura, matching many online calendars and national tables.
When Ramadan has already started, the headline switches from a countdown to a day-of-month counter — for example "Day 12 of Ramadan" — plus days remaining until Eid al-Fitr. On the first day of Ramadan the headline reads "Ramadan Mubarak."
After Ramadan ends you never see a dead zero. The countdown automatically targets the next Hijri year's 1 Ramadan without refreshing the page or entering a new Gregorian year. That roll-forward behavior mirrors how live holiday countdowns should feel year round.
Example scenario: if today falls mid-March during Ramadan 1447 under Umm al-Qura tables, you might see which day of the month you are on and roughly how many days remain until Eid. If today is after Eid, the calculator counts down to Ramadan 1448 instead.
Moon sighting rules vary by region. This page shows tabular estimates — your community may begin fasting a day earlier or later than the date math here. Confirm with your local mosque before treating the countdown as a religious ruling.
Timezone matters only for defining "today." The tool uses your device's local date at midnight boundaries, not astronomical sunset. Near month boundaries a same-day ±1 difference is possible compared with traditions that advance the Hijri date after Maghrib.
Pair with the Ramadan date calculator when you need the full start, end, and Eid table for a specific Gregorian year, or the Hijri–Gregorian converter for arbitrary date conversions in either direction.

Common questions
Does this use my location?
It uses your device timezone for "today" only — not GPS. Calendar method (Umm al-Qura vs tabular) is your choice; moon sighting rules vary by region.
What happens after Ramadan ends?
The countdown automatically targets the next Ramadan year — you do not need to refresh the page or pick a new year.
Why might the countdown differ from my mosque announcement?
Many communities follow local moon sighting or a national authority that can shift 1 Ramadan by one day. This tool uses published tabular estimates, not live sighting reports.
