Ramadan: Suhoor, Iftar & Prayer Times

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic (Hijri) calendar, when Muslims fast from dawn (Fajr) to sunset (Maghrib). Getting Suhoor and Iftar times right for your city is essential.

Suhoor and Iftar — the two key times

• Suhoor ends at the start of Fajr (true dawn). This is the last moment to eat before the fast begins.
• Iftar begins at Maghrib (sunset), when the fast is broken.

So your fasting window each day is simply Fajr → Maghrib. Both are calculated from the sun's position for your exact location, which is why they differ between cities and shift slightly each day of the month.

How long is the fast?

Fasting length depends on your latitude and the season. In many regions Ramadan fasts range from about 12 to 17 hours. Closer to the equator the hours are stable year-round; farther north or south they vary a lot with the season.

Tips for Ramadan

• Enable adhan notifications for Fajr and Maghrib so you never miss Suhoor's end or Iftar.
• Hydrate well between Iftar and Suhoor, not just at one meal.
• Use the Hijri calendar to track the month, the last ten nights, and Laylat al-Qadr.
• Keep the Quran handy — many aim to complete a full reading during Ramadan.
