菲律宾的天主教徒和穆斯林斋戒季节已确定。天主教的四旬期将于2月18日的圣灰星期三开始，而穆斯林的斋月因未见到新月而推迟至2月19日。
菲律宾马尼拉本周标志着天主教徒和穆斯林斋戒季节的开始。对于天主教徒，2月18日星期三的圣灰星期三开启了教会礼仪年历中的四旬期。这一天要求信徒遵守斋戒，以及四旬期每个星期五和大星期五。从棕枝主日使用的棕榈叶焚烧成的灰烬标在信徒的额头上。圣灰星期三通常由天主教徒遵守，尽管基督教的其他分支也实行这一习俗。在一份日期为2月16日的牧灵信中，菲律宾天主教主教会议主席利帕主教吉尔伯特·加塞拉敦促信徒不仅斋戒食物，还要斋戒数字媒体。“过度使用媒体往往导致分心、疲劳、注意力丧失、人际关系削弱以及灵性意识减弱，”加塞拉在信中说。“数字媒体斋戒有助于恢复平衡，并提醒我们技术必须服务于人类生活——而非主导它，”他补充道。与此同时，对于穆斯林，原定于2月18日的斋月已移至2月19日。根据班萨摩罗达鲁伊夫塔’的大穆夫提谢赫·阿卜杜勒拉乌夫·吉亚拉尼的说法，这是因为未见到标志祈祷和斋戒月的弦月。在此期间，穆斯林从日出到日落斋戒食物和饮品，年长者、孕妇、哺乳期妇女或经期妇女除外。
