The Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 helps you plan every fast with expected sehri and iftar times.

Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 is the guide to open if you plan to fast in East London and want one clear page with sehri times, iftar times and the key dates of the month. In this article, ELM means the East London Mosque on Whitechapel Road. You will find a full 30 day timetable, a free PDF for your phone, and practical advice for work, study and family life.

One honest note before you start. The mosque publishes its own timetable closer to Ramadan, and that version is the one to follow. The times in this Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 are expected times we calculated for Whitechapel. They help you plan early.

What the Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 Covers

A Ramadan calendar is more than a list of dates. For most people in London it answers three daily questions. When does sehri end? When can I break my fast? When is the night prayer? This Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 answers all three and adds the key dates of the month.

Islamic prayer times for Ramadan in London
Prayer times change with location, so a local calendar is more reliable than a general one.

It is written for worshippers near the East London Mosque, families in Tower Hamlets, Newham and Hackney, and workers and students in the City and Canary Wharf.

Why the location matters

Sunset and dawn arrive at different minutes in different cities. For 2026, the mosque said its suhur and iftar times come from the London Unified Prayer Timetable and can be used across the London region.

Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 at a Glance: Key Dates

Ramadan 2027 is the month of Ramadan 1448 in the Hijri calendar. The new moon is due around 6 February 2027, so the earliest sighting in the UK is on the evening of Sunday 7 February. That points to a first fast on Monday 8 February.

UK clocks go forward on Sunday 28 March 2027, after Ramadan has ended. That means every time in this Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 is in Greenwich Mean Time, with no clock change during the fast.

Full Elm Ramadan Timetable 2027: Sehri and Iftar for All 30 Days

The table below is the full Elm Ramadan timetable 2027 for London. Sehri ends when Fajr begins, and iftar begins at sunset. Both are shown in bold for quick scanning.

How to read the Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 table

  • Sehri ends is the start of Fajr. Finish eating before this time.
  • Iftar is Maghrib, the moment of sunset. Many people wait a minute as a precaution.
  • Asr Shafii and Asr Hanafi are both shown, because communities follow different opinions.
  • Gold rows mark days whose evening begins an odd night of the last ten nights.

All times are in Greenwich Mean Time for East London. Day 30 applies only if Ramadan completes 30 days. Expected times, not an official mosque publication.

How the times were calculated

The Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 uses the coordinates of Whitechapel Road and the sun's position on each date. Fajr and Isha use a 12 degree twilight angle, a common choice for UK timetables. Sehri times are rounded down and iftar times are rounded up, to stay on the safe side.

You can cross check the results with Islamic Network prayer times for London or the sun data from timeanddate. Mosques choose different methods, so a minute or two of difference is normal. No 2027 edition of the mosque's own timetable was published yet, so these numbers are our own calculation.

If Ramadan starts one day later

If the moon is not sighted on 7 February, Ramadan begins on Tuesday 9 February. The day numbers move by one, but the times for each date stay the same. On Tuesday 9 February, sehri ends at 6:11 am and iftar is at 5:04 pm. Always follow the date column.

Save the Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 to your phone, so you can check sehri and iftar even without a signal on the Tube. The PDF is a single A4 page that prints cleanly for the kitchen or the office.

How the Fast Changes From Day 1 to Day 30

Across the Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027, the fast starts short and grows. Day 1 lasts 10 hours 51 minutes, and day 30 lasts 12 hours 39 minutes. That is 1 hour 48 minutes longer, because sehri ends 56 minutes earlier and iftar arrives 52 minutes later.

Week one: Monday 8 to Sunday 14 February

Sehri ends between 6:12 am and 6:02 am, and iftar falls between 5:03 pm and 5:14 pm. A shift that ends at 5 pm may still be underway at iftar, so pack dates and water. On Friday 12 February, sehri ends at 6:06 am and iftar is at 5:10 pm.

Weeks two and three: Monday 15 to Sunday 28 February

On Wednesday 17 February, sehri ends at 5:57 am and iftar is at 5:19 pm, a fast of 11 hours 22 minutes. By Sunday 28 February, iftar has moved to 5:39 pm and the fast passes 12 hours, so your sehri meal matters more.

The last ten days: Sunday 28 February to Tuesday 9 March

Sehri ends between 5:36 am and 5:16 am, and iftar arrives between 5:39 pm and 5:55 pm. Many people take leave or reduce commitments to focus on worship, so plan your sleep early.

Sehri Guide for Busy London Mornings

The Prophet, peace be upon him, encouraged sehri and said there is blessing in it. You can read the narration in Sahih al Bukhari. Even a few dates and a glass of water count. Read our guide to fasting in Islam for the rules.

The best time to eat sehri

Check the Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 the night before and set your alarm. A simple plan is to wake about 45 minutes before sehri ends.

Example: on Wednesday 17 February, sehri ends at 5:57 am. Set your alarm for 5:10 am, drink water, eat your meal by 5:45 am, and pray Fajr with time to spare.

What to eat for steady energy

Choose foods that release energy slowly, and pair them with plenty of fluids. Salty food makes thirst worse.

A simple sehri plate

  • Oats or wholemeal toast for slow energy.
  • Eggs, yoghurt or beans for protein.
  • A banana or dates for natural sugars and minerals.
  • Two or three glasses of water, spread across the meal.

Iftar Guide: Breaking Your Fast the Right Way

Preparing for Ramadan in the month of Shaban
Good habits built in Shaban make the first week of Ramadan easier.

Break your fast at sunset

The Prophet, peace be upon him, said people will remain in good so long as they hasten to break the fast. This is also recorded in Sahih al Bukhari. Check the minute in the Elm Ramadan timetable 2027, then break your fast with dates and water. Our page on iftar in Islam explains the etiquette.

A well known dua for iftar is: Dhahaba az zama'u wabtallatil 'uruqu wa thabatal ajru in sha Allah. It means the thirst is gone, the veins are moist and the reward is confirmed, God willing.

A simple three step iftar

Start light with dates and water. Pray Maghrib, then return to a balanced meal: half the plate vegetables, a quarter protein and a quarter rice, bread or potatoes. Limit deep fried snacks, which can leave you tired before Taraweeh.

Taraweeh, Isha and the Last Ten Nights

Isha begins at about 6:17 pm on the first day and at 7:07 pm on the last day. Taraweeh follows the Isha prayer. The number of units differs from one mosque to another, so the Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 does not guess Taraweeh timings. Follow the schedule your mosque announces.

Laylat al Qadr in 2027

The Quran describes the Night of Power as better than a thousand months. Its exact night is not fixed. The Prophet, peace be upon him, advised seeking it in the odd nights of the last ten. Our guide to Laylat al Qadr explains more.

29th nightSunday 7 March5:51 pm

A short dua taught for this night is: Allahumma innaka afuwwun tuhibbul afwa fafu anni. It means: O Allah, You are forgiving and You love forgiveness, so forgive me.

Moon Sighting and the Start of Ramadan 2027 in the UK

The Islamic month begins with the new crescent, which is hard to see in a British winter. Clouds and a very young moon can make sighting difficult, so two mosques in one city can sometimes start on different days.

Why dates can differ between mosques

Some communities follow a local sighting. Others use calculation, or follow another country. For its 2026 timetable, the East London Mosque said the start and end of Ramadan depend on the sighting of the new moon. Treat every Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 date as expected.

What to do on the 29th evening

On the evening of Sunday 7 February, and again on Monday 8 March, look for the mosque's announcement. Keep your phone nearby and set your alarm for sehri, because the news can come late.

Eid al Fitr 2027 and Zakat al Fitr

Eid al Fitr celebration after Ramadan
Eid al Fitr is a day of prayer, charity and family.

The Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 expects Eid al Fitr on Tuesday 9 March or Wednesday 10 March, depending on the moon. Read more in our guide to Eid al Fitr. After the Eid prayer, many families visit relatives and share meals.

Pay Zakat al Fitr before the Eid prayer

Zakat al Fitr is a small charity that every Muslim who can afford it pays for themselves and their dependants. It must reach those in need before the Eid prayer. In 2026, the East London Mosque listed Zakat al Fitr as available from the first day of Ramadan.

Our Zakat calculator, our guide to Zakat in Islam and our page on charity in Islam can help.

The six fasts of Shawwal

After Eid, many Muslims fast six days in Shawwal. The Prophet, peace be upon him, said this, together with Ramadan, is like fasting for a lifetime. See our page on Shawwal.

Health, Work and Study Tips for Fasting in London

Look after your health

Fasting is not required for people who are ill, travelling, pregnant or nursing, or who cannot fast safely. If you have a medical condition or take regular medicine, speak to your GP or pharmacist before Ramadan. The NHS North East London health and care partnership shares yearly advice on planning ahead for a healthy Ramadan.

Spread your fluids between iftar and sehri, and keep a short walk in your routine.

Talk to your employer early

Raise your plans a few weeks ahead. Ask about earlier finish times, a quiet space to pray, or leave for the last ten days. Use the Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 dates to make a clear request.

Ramadan 2027 Preparation Checklist

  • Fast a few voluntary days in Shaban to ease into the routine.
  • Make up any missed fasts from last Ramadan.
  • Set a Quran reading goal, such as one juz each day.
  • Save the Elm Ramadan Calendar 2027 PDF and set sehri alarms on your phone.
  • Check the mosque's website for the official timetable and moon announcement.
  • Plan your Zakat and your Zakat al Fitr early.
  • Read what is Ramadan and why Muslims fast to teach children or guests.
