Based on sighting of the moon in United States, in 2014, Ramadan will start in North America on Sunday, the 29th of June.

Note that in the Muslim calender, a holiday begins on the sunset of the previous day, so observing Muslims will celebrate Ramadan on the sunset of Saturday, the 28th of June.

Although Ramadan is always on the same day of the Islamic calendar, the date on the Gregorian calendar varies from year to year since the Gregorian calendar is a solar calendar and the Islamic calendar is a lunar calendar. This difference means Ramadan moves in the Gregorian calendar approximately 11 days every year. The date of Ramadan may also vary from country to country, depending on whether the moon has been sighted or not.

Sidi usually sends out a message to let us know if the moon has been sighted and to let us know that Ramadan has begun.
