Diabetes and Ramadan

Ramadan in 2026 will run from on or around Tuesday 17 February for 29 or 30 days, ending with Eid al-Fitr, a religious holiday celebrated by Muslims worldwide.

Diabetes UK, in partnership with the British Islamic Medical Association, have produced a factsheet about diabetes and Ramadan, which is available to download in English, Arabic, Bengali, Gujarati and Urdu, and includes information about fasting and managing your diabetes during this time.
