Ramadan timetable 2027 for every city: Iftar and Suhoor times

What the Ramadan timetable 2027 is

The Ramadan timetable 2027 is the daily schedule of Suhoor and Iftar times, city by city: Suhoor, the pre-dawn meal, ends at Fajr, and Iftar breaks the fast at sunset. The first fast is expected on Monday 8 February 2027 and the last around 8 or 9 March, with a few minutes of difference from one city to the next.

How Ramadan timetables are organised by country and city

Timetables are grouped by country, and each country leads onward to its cities. Each city's timetable starts from live prayer times, followed by practical notes on fasting, prayer and daily life written for that place rather than copied across locations.

Reading the live timetable

Each day's entry names six moments: dawn, sunrise, midday, afternoon, sunset and nightfall, labelled Fajr through Isha. Fajr closes Suhoor, while Maghrib signals Iftar. Look at the live timetable every day, since the minutes move a little as the weeks pass.

Choosing a city from the list

Start with your country, then pick the nearest listed city. If your town is missing, choose a neighbouring city on the same coast or plain, since timings usually differ by only a few minutes over short distances. Large countries may need a closer match.

When Ramadan 2027 is expected to begin

Ramadan 2027 is projected to begin on 8 February 2027 and last 29 or 30 days, ending around 8 or 9 March, with Eid al-Fitr expected on 9 or 10 March. These dates depend on moon sighting and local announcements.

Why the timetable is the same in form but different in detail

The Islamic calendar follows the moon, so the dates are shared worldwide in principle, yet sunrise and sunset differ with latitude. A northern city and a southern one will therefore show different fasting lengths, even on the very same date.

Why calculation methods cause small gaps

Authorities define the Fajr and Isha twilight angles differently, so two trusted timetables can disagree by a few minutes. If your mosque follows a particular method, adopt its timing for prayers, and treat calculated times as a reliable general guide.

Day length through the month

In February the northern hemisphere has short winter days that lengthen slowly, while the southern hemisphere enjoys long summer days that shorten a little. Places near the equator see a steady rhythm, so fasting hours barely move from week to week.

Planning your pre-dawn meal

Suhoor works best when it is unhurried. Set an alarm well before Fajr, drink water first, then eat slow-release foods such as oats, eggs, dates and yoghurt. Use the live timetable the night before to confirm exactly when eating should stop.

Du'a and sunnah at the fast's start and end

Many Muslims make a short intention before dawn and end the day's fast with a few dates, as the Prophet is reported to have done. A brief du'a before eating is customary, and it is a good moment to pause and give thanks.

Taraweeh and night prayers away from home

Taraweeh follows Isha, and mosques announce their own schedules for rakats and recitation length. If you are travelling, ask locally, arrive early for a place in the rows, and keep your phone silent so everyone can concentrate on the recitation.

Itikaf and extra time in the mosque

Itikaf is a spiritual retreat kept inside a mosque, traditionally in the final ten nights. Arrangements are made with each mosque in advance, and some communities allow part-time attendance. Speak to the imam early, because places and rules vary from one mosque to another.

Breaking fast while out and about

Carry dates and a small bottle of water so you can open your fast wherever Maghrib finds you. Mosques, community halls and many cafes welcome people at sunset. Choose a quiet corner, and be considerate of others nearby when you pray.

Respect and understanding for non-Muslim friends

Colleagues and neighbours who are not fasting can help by avoiding big lunch invitations and by being flexible about meeting times. A simple greeting of Ramadan Mubarak is always appreciated. Fasting Muslims, in turn, should feel free to explain their needs politely.

Common questions about timings

Readers often ask why a neighbour's timetable differs by a minute or two, whether to follow a city or a mosque, and what to do after a cloudy sunset. As a rule, follow your local mosque and use the calculated timetable for planning.
