Islam’s most sacred month Ramadan kicks off in Pakistan on Saturday, March 1st 2025. That’s 1 Ramadan 1446 AH if you’re looking at the Islamic calendar. People observe this holy month by fasting, praying and doing some deep soul searching. Even though it’s a big deal, March 1st is still a regular workday over there in Pakistan so you can bet most shops and companies will keep their doors open just like any other day!
