Ramadan Timetable in Pakistan 2027: Sehri & Iftar Times by City

Ramadan Timetable in Pakistan 2027: Sehri & Iftar Times by City

Ramadan 2027 (1448 AH) is expected to begin in Pakistan around 9 February 2027, subject to confirmation by the Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee after the moon-sighting session on 8 February. This Ramadan timetable in Pakistan 2027 gives you today's Sehri and Iftar reference times for major cities, the expected start and end dates, a full estimated day-by-day fasting calendar, and everything you need to plan Sehri, Iftar, and Taraweeh across the country.

When Is Ramadan 2027 Expected to Start in Pakistan?

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar, so its Gregorian start date shifts roughly 10–11 days earlier every year. Astronomical forecasts point to the crescent moon becoming visible on the evening of Monday, 8 February 2027, in most regions. Pakistan's Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee, however, confirms the date only after receiving local sighting reports from zonal committees across the country — historically, this has sometimes pushed Pakistan's official start a day later than the Gulf announcement.

• Expected moon-sighting session: Monday, 8 February 2027
• Expected first Roza (fast) in Pakistan: Tuesday, 9 February 2027
• Expected Ramadan length: 29 or 30 days
• Expected Eid-ul-Fitr: around 10–11 March 2027

Sehri & Iftar Reference Times in Major Pakistan Cities

Sehri and Iftar times vary from city to city because of differences in longitude and latitude across the country. The table below shows today's Fajr and Maghrib reference times for major cities — the same pattern of city-to-city variation will carry through into the Ramadan 2027 calendar.

Reference times as of 22 August 2026. City-specific Ramadan 2027 calendars will differ from these figures and will be updated closer to the month on each city's dedicated page.

Estimated Ramadan Calendar 2027 — Karachi (Sample City)

Figures rounded to the nearest minute, projected from typical Karachi sunrise/sunset progression for this period of the year. Times for Lahore, Islamabad, Peshawar, Quetta, and other cities will differ — dedicated city pages will carry their own estimated calendars.

City-Wise Ramadan Timetable in Pakistan: Why Times Differ

Pakistan spans a wide range of longitude and latitude — from Karachi on the coast to Peshawar near the northern hills — while the whole country keeps a single standard time zone. That combination means Sehri and Iftar times can differ by 30–45 minutes between cities on the same calendar day. Karachi, for example, typically sees later clock-time Sehri and Iftar than Lahore or Islamabad, even though it's further south, simply because of where it sits relative to the country's standard time meridian.

Preparing for Ramadan 2027 in Pakistan

Sehri Traditions

Sehri across Pakistan usually centers on simple, energy-dense food — parathas, eggs, milk, and dates — eaten a little before the Fajr azan. In many neighborhoods, a Sehri caller or mosque loudspeaker still wakes households in the final minutes before the fast begins, a tradition that remains strong in smaller towns and older city neighborhoods.

Iftar Traditions

Iftar tables across the country typically open with dates and water, followed by pakoras, samosas, chana chaat, and fruit chaat, with Rooh Afza a common drink on the table. Many mosques and community groups also organize free Iftar dastarkhwans for travelers, laborers, and people in need — a visible, everyday form of charity during the month.

Taraweeh and Mosque Arrangements

Mosques across Pakistan — from the historic Badshahi Mosque in Lahore to the modern Faisal Mosque in Islamabad — hold special nightly Taraweeh prayers throughout Ramadan, with many completing a full recitation of the Quran by the end of the month. Attendance typically increases further during the last ten nights as worshippers seek out Laylatul Qadr.

How Long Is the Daily Fast in Pakistan During Ramadan 2027?

Because Ramadan 2027 falls in late winter and early spring, most Pakistani cities should see fasting hours of roughly 12 to 13 hours a day — noticeably shorter and easier than the summer Ramadans of recent years, when fasts stretched past 15 hours in northern cities.
