Abstract :Fasting during Ramadan, one of the Muslim societies\' religious practices, affects individuals\' daily lives in various ways. The aim of this study was to examine the sleep habits of university students during the online education process during Ramadan. Seventy-four university students from two universities in Turkey were evaluated using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) before and after Ramadan. The results indicated a significant deterioration in subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep disturbances, daytime dysfunction, and overall sleep quality (global PSQI score) during Ramadan. However, no significant changes were observed in sleep duration, habitual sleep efficiency, and sleep medication usage. The findings underline the need for tailored strategies to support university students\' sleep hygiene during Ramadan.
