Announcement by Mufti of Singapore on the beginning of Ramadan for Muslims in Singapore

According to the astronomical calculations, the crescent for the month of Ramadan did appear this evening after sunset for about 16 minutes. As such, the first day of fasting for the month of Ramadan falls tomorrow, Tuesday, 13 April 2021.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish all Muslims in Singapore a blessed Ramadan. Let us welcome this month with good intentions to seek goodness for ourselves, our families and our community. Let us share the blessings of Ramadan. May God bless our efforts to overcome any challenges and make us people of faith and devotion.

Dr Nazirudin Mohd Nasir
Mufti
