Ramadan in Dubai and Abu Dhabi in 2023 is expected to begin on March 23, with confirmed dates to be announced as per the moon sighting.

Ramadan is known as the Holy month in the Islamic calendar and is a time when the Islamic community comes together fast and pray.

Muslims abstain from eating and drinking from dawn to dusk, as fasting is known as the one of the five pillars of Islam.

During Ramadan Muslims fast for up to 14 hours a day, between sunrise and sunset.

The breaking  of fast comes with a meal known as iftar and comes at the same time as the Maghrib prayer.

With the Maghrib prayer timing following sunset it will be slightly later each day this year as daylight hours lengthen throughout March and April.

With the Holy Month of Ramadan approaching these are the expected Iftar times for Dubai and Abu Dhabi this year.
