The month lasts 29â30 days based on the visual sightings of the crescent moon, according to numerous biographical accounts compiled in the hadiths. The word Ramadan comes from the Arabic root ramiá¸a or ar-ramaá¸, which means scorching heat or dryness.
Ramadan beginning dates between Gregorian years 1938 and 2038. HilÄl (the crescent) is typically a day (or more) after the astronomical new moon. Since the new moon marks the beginning of the new month, Muslims can usually safely estimate the beginning of Ramadan.
