Yeah, but it’s a lunar calendar, so it’s at different times in different years, starting and ending at new moon, not the solar month of the Roman calendar. And I’m pretty sure it’s not this month.

Ramadan in 2022 is basically the entire month of April - I looked it up. Every year it starts 11 days earlier by the Gregorian Calendar. So, since it starts on the 92nd day of the Gregorian year, 92 / 11 = 8.27 years to reach January 1st. So that would be 2030 or 2031. No need to worry about the two events colliding until 2034.

The problem this coming year is that Ramadan includes the dates of Easter, by both the Roman and Eastern formulae.
