Worshipers were gathering for evening prayers at the time, in the city 65km northwest of Baghdad, the capital.
A separate incident also occurred in Kerbala, a mostly Shia city 80km south of Baghdad, where a bomb exploded on a bus.
The blast killed four people and wounded another eight, police said.
Ramadi was once a key al-Qaeda stronghold following the US-led invasion of 2003, but violence has significantly decreased since 2006, when local tribes sided with the US military."
