  1. Muḥarram - المحرّم, "forbidden" - so called because it was unlawful (haram) to fight during this month.[3] Muharram is the second most sacred Muslim month and includes the Day of Ashura.
  2. Ṣafar - صفر, "void" - supposedly named because pagan Arabs looted during this month and left the houses empty.
  3. Rabīʿ I (Rabīʿ al-Awwal) - ربيع الأوّل, "the first Spring".
  4. Rabīʿ II (Rabīʿ ath-Thānī) or (Rabīʿ al-Ākhir) - ربيع الثاني or ربيع الآخر, "the second (or last) Spring".
  5. Jumādā I (Jumādā al-Ūlā) - جمادى الأولى, "the first month of parched land".
  6. Jumādā II (Jumādā ath-Thāniya or Jumādā al-Ākhira) - جمادى الآخرة, جمادى الثانية, "the second (or last) month of parched land".
  7. Rajab - رجب, "respect" or "honor". Rajab is another of the sacred months in which fighting was traditionally forbidden.
  8. Shaʿbān - شعبان, "scattered", marking the time of year when Arab tribes dispersed to find water.
  9. Ramaḍān - رمضان, "scorched". Ramadan is the most venerated month of the Hijri calendar, during which Muslims fast between dawn and sunset.
  10. Shawwāl - شوّال, "raised", as she-camels begin to raise their tails during this time of the year, after giving birth.
  11. Dhū al-Qaʿda - ذو القعدة, "the one of truce". Dhu al-Qa'da was another month during which war was banned.
  12. Dhū al-Ḥijja - ذو الحجّة, "the one of pilgrimage", referring to the annual Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca, the Hajj.

What mouth on the Islamic alender is Ramadan?

Presumably, Ramadan takes place in Muslims' mouths. As a fast holiday, it is really only practice by those who are not eating. Since Ramadan is an Islamic holiday, it is Muslims who observe it.If the question was simply a misspelling of the question: "What MONTH does Ramadan take place in?" the answer is that the celebration takes place during the month of Ramadan. On the Islamic Calendar, Ramadan is a name of one of the months. However, this does not match up consistently with the Gregorian (Western) calendar since the Islamic Calendar has only 354 days. As a result, Ramadan comes 11-12 days earlier on the Gregorian Calendar every year. As a result, in 2017, Ramadan will be primarily in the month of June (May 26-June 25), but in 2000, Ramadan was primarily in the month of December (November 27-December 27).
