Ramadan to Begin in India on March 2 as Crescent Moon Not Sighted
As the holy month of Ramadan approaches, anticipation fills the air among the Muslim community in India. According to Lucknow’s Shahi Imam, Maulana Khalid Rasheed, the crescent moon has not yet been sighted, confirming that Ramadan will commence on March 2. This announcement aligns with the traditions and practices observed by Muslims worldwide, who rely on lunar sightings to mark the beginning of this sacred month.
Understanding Ramadan
Ramadan is a month of fasting, prayer, reflection, and community. Observant Muslims refrain from eating and drinking from dawn until sunset, focusing instead on spiritual growth and self-discipline. The month culminates in the celebration of Eid al-Fitr, marking the end of fasting with feasting and festivities. This year, the significance of Ramadan resonates even more, as it encourages unity and compassion in our communities.
The Role of Moon Sighting
The moon sighting holds immense importance in Islamic tradition. It signifies the start of new months in the Islamic calendar, and many religious leaders, such as Imams in mosques across India, play a crucial role in this process. The announcement by Maulana Khalid Rasheed brings clarity to the faithful, guiding them in their preparations for the month ahead.
