We will fast Ramadan twice this year!

Arab weather - in an event that is repeated every 33 years only once, as it happened in 1965 and 1997, we will fast Ramadan twice in one year , in 2030 and then in 2063

Ramadan will be repeated twice in the year 2030

Where it will come with the beginning of 2030 on the fifth of January and corresponds to the Hijri year 1451, then returns in the same Gregorian year, specifically on December 26 and corresponds to the Hijri year 1452.

This means that we will fast 36 days in 2030, of which 30 days belong to the year 1451 and 6 days to 1452.

What is the reason for repeating the month of Ramadan twice a year?

The reason for this is that the month of Ramadan comes within the lunar year, which consists of 354 days, while the seasons follow the system of the solar year, which has a duration of 365 days, and thus the difference between them is 11 days. We fasted in 2023 during the spring season, so we will fast in 1449 at the height of winter, 1457 at the height of autumn, and 1466 at the height of summer.

Since we will fast Ramadan during the years between 1443 and 1446 AH in the spring, and during the years from 1447 to 1450 AH in the winter, then the fasting phase will enter in the autumn season, and with the late fifties AH, fasting will return in the summer.

It is worth noting that the longest hours of fasting will be in the summer and the shortest will be in the winter.
