Muslims keep 29 or 30 fasts in the month of Ramadan. However, in 2030, Muslims will have to observe 36 fasts. And in 2033 there may be fasting twice and three Eids.
Dubai Astronomy Group Chief Executive Officer Hasan Ahmed Al Hariri said this information.
He said that there is a possibility of two Ramadans in 2030. This is because of the difference between the months of the English calendar and the lunar year. Usually the months of the English year are fixed at 30 or 31 days. The months of the lunar year are defined as either 29 or 30 days. Due to this difference in days in the month, the lunar year is reduced by 11 days from the end of the English year. In this way, due to the difference of 11 days in a year, Muslims will have two Ramadan months in 2030.
The Global Islamic Calendar of 2030 also confirmed this information. According to the calendar, the full month of Ramadan will come twice in 2033 and a total of three Eids will be held that year.
About fasting twice a year, professor of climate in the geography department of the University of Saudi Arabia. Abdullah Al Musnad said that the holy month of Ramadan will begin on January 5, 2030, 1451 Hijri. This month will complete 30 days. That is, the month of Ramadan will end on February 3. As such, there will be 30 fasts in the holy month of Ramadan.
He said that the month of Ramadan of 1452 Hijri will start from December 26 of the same year. Until December 31, believing Muslims will fast for 6 days. Accordingly, in 2030, the Muslim Ummah will fast for 36 days.
Besides, the truth of this information has also been found in the Global Islamic Calendar of 2030. According to the calendar, the first Ramadan that year will begin on January 5, end on February 4, and the second Ramadan will begin on December 26, which will end on January 24, 2031. So, the next Ramadan Eid-ul-Fitr will be held in 2031.
