Ramadan 2026 in South Africa is expected to begin on the evening of Tuesday, February 17, and conclude on the evening of Wednesday, March 18. This sacred month of fasting, prayer, and reflection moves about ten days earlier each year because the Islamic calendar follows the lunar cycle.
Eid al-Fitr 2026 is anticipated to take place from the evening of Thursday, March 19, to Friday, March 20, marking the joyful end of Ramadan and the beginning of the new Islamic month.
The Ramadan 2026 timetable for South Africa will include accurate Sehri (pre-dawn meal) and Iftar (fast-breaking) times for major cities such as Cape Town, Johannesburg, and Durban. The official start of Ramadan will be confirmed closer to the date, once the new Islamic month is established.
