Today Iftar Time
Are you looking for the exact Today Iftar time in your location? For Muslims around the world, the moment of Iftar is a time of spiritual reflection, gratitude, and community. Whether you are in Dhaka, London, New York, or any other corner of the globe, staying updated with precise timings is essential for a fulfilling fast.
At Islamic Info Center, we provide real-time, location-based data to ensure you never miss the sunset call to prayer.
Why Iftar Time Changes Daily
You may notice that Iftar occurs a minute earlier or later each day. This is because the Islamic fasting schedule is tied to the Lunar Calendar and the position of the sun.
Sunset (Maghrib): Iftar begins exactly at sunset.
Geographic Location: Your latitude and longitude determine when the sun disappears below the horizon.
Seasonal Shifts: As days get longer or shorter throughout the year, the window for fasting shifts accordingly.

Worldwide Iftar Times: A Global Perspective
While it is currently Ramadan 1, 1447 AH (based on expected sightings), Muslims across the world are observing different fasting durations:
Middle East (e.g., Mecca/Dubai): Fasting usually lasts around 13 to 14 hours.
Europe (e.g., London/Berlin): Depending on the season, fasts can extend up to 16+ hours.
North America (e.g., New York/Toronto): Residents often see Iftar times ranging from 6:00 PM to 8:30 PM depending on the time of year.
To find your specific city’s timing, you can use our Global Prayer Map which uses your GPS to fetch the most accurate local results.
The Sunnah of Breaking the Fast
Iftar is not just about eating; it is a deeply rewarded Sunnah. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said:
“The people will remain on the right path as long as they hasten the breaking of the fast.” (Sahih Bukhari)
Recommended Sunnah Acts:
Break with Dates: If dates aren’t available, water is the best alternative.
Make Dua: The moments just before Iftar are a prime time for your prayers to be accepted.
The Iftar Dua:
Dhahaba al-zamau’ wabtallat al-‘uruq wa thabata al-ajru in sha Allah
(The thirst is gone, the veins are moistened, and the reward is confirmed, if Allah wills).
