Slough Ramadan Timetable 2027: Sehri and Iftar Times for Every Fast

Published 17 September 2026 · Reviewed by the Islamic Info Center editorial team · Reading time 8 minutes

If you live in Slough and you are already planning your fasts, this page gives you the full Slough Ramadan Timetable 2027 in one place. You will find the daily Sehri and Iftar times, the complete set of five daily prayer times, the expected start date of Ramadan 1448 AH, the odd nights of the last ten days, the likely date of Eid al Fitr and a printable PDF you can pin to the kitchen wall.

Ramadan 2027 falls in late winter, which is welcome news for anyone who struggled through the long summer fasts of the past decade. Days in Berkshire in February are short, so the first fast in Slough lasts a little under twelve hours. By the final days of the month the fast has stretched to roughly thirteen and a half hours, which is still far gentler than a July Ramadan.

When does Ramadan 2027 begin in Slough

Ramadan 1448 AH is expected to begin on Monday 8 February 2027 in the United Kingdom, which means the first Taraweeh prayer will be offered on the night of Sunday 7 February and the first Sehri eaten in the early hours of Monday morning.

That date is an astronomical projection rather than a fixed certainty. The Islamic calendar is lunar, so each month begins only when the new crescent is confirmed. Some Slough mosques follow local United Kingdom sighting, others follow the announcement from Morocco or from Saudi Arabia, and a small number rely on published astronomical calculation. It is entirely normal for neighbouring mosques in Berkshire to begin Ramadan one day apart. Nothing on this page replaces the announcement made by the masjid you actually pray in.

Because the lunar year runs roughly eleven days shorter than the solar year, Ramadan moves backwards through the seasons. Ramadan 2026 began in the second half of February, so Ramadan 2027 lands in early February and Ramadan 2028 will begin in late January. For families in Slough that means a run of comfortable winter Ramadans, with short fasting hours and an Iftar that arrives before most people have finished the school run and the commute home.

Full 30 day Slough Ramadan Timetable 2027

The table below sets out every fast of Ramadan 2027 for Slough, Berkshire. Sehri ends a few minutes before Fajr begins as a standard precaution, and Iftar is made at Maghrib. All times are shown in Greenwich Mean Time using the 24 hour clock. British Summer Time does not begin until 28 March 2027, so no clock change falls inside Ramadan this year.

Swipe sideways on a phone to see every column. Times are calculated for Slough, Berkshire (51.51°N, 0.59°W) and are accurate to within a minute or two for Langley, Cippenham, Chalvey, Upton Park, Wexham and Burnham.

Notice how quickly the times shift. Over thirty days Sehri moves almost an hour earlier while Iftar moves almost an hour later. A timetable printed for one week will be badly wrong by the next, so keep the full month in view rather than memorising a single time.

How these Sehri and Iftar times are calculated

Prayer times are worked out from the position of the sun relative to your exact latitude and longitude, not from a national average. Slough sits at roughly 51.51 degrees north and 0.59 degrees west, a little over thirty kilometres west of central London.

The timetable on this page uses the convention followed by most mosques across Berkshire and Greater London:

• Fajr when the sun is 18 degrees below the horizon, the point at which true dawn appears.
• Sunrise and Maghrib at the visible rising and setting of the sun, with Maghrib marking the moment of Iftar.
• Dhuhr a few minutes after solar noon, once the sun has visibly passed its zenith.
• Asr according to the Hanafi position, when an object's shadow reaches twice its own length. Mosques following the Shafi position will list Asr roughly forty five minutes earlier.
• Isha when the sun reaches 18 degrees below the horizon after sunset.

A handful of Slough mosques use 15 degrees or 12 degrees for Fajr and Isha, which shifts Sehri later by ten to twenty minutes and Isha earlier by a similar amount. If your masjid publishes its own card, follow that card. The astronomical basis for all of these figures is the same solar geometry maintained by the Royal Observatory Greenwich, which is also the origin point of Greenwich Mean Time used throughout this timetable.

Slough mosques and Taraweeh in Ramadan 2027

Slough has one of the most established Muslim communities in the Thames Valley, with a population drawn largely from Pakistani, Kashmiri, Bangladeshi, Indian, Somali and Afghan backgrounds. Several mosques serve the town and its surrounding neighbourhoods, and most run a full Taraweeh programme through the month, with many completing a khatm of the Quran by the twenty seventh night.

Taraweeh in Slough typically begins around fifteen to twenty minutes after the Isha congregation, which puts most jamaats between 19:15 and 19:30 in the first week and closer to 20:00 by the final week. Hafiz led prayers of twenty rakah are the norm in the larger mosques, while some smaller jamaat khanas offer eight rakah at a slower pace.

Two practical points worth knowing before the month starts. First, parking near the busier mosques on the Chalvey and Diamond Road side of town fills up very quickly on weekend nights and on the odd nights of the last ten, so walking or sharing a car saves a great deal of frustration. Second, many mosques run a community Iftar several nights a week, usually free and open to anyone, which is a genuine help to students, shift workers and anyone living alone.

Confirm Taraweeh timings, sisters' facilities and Iftar arrangements directly with your mosque before Ramadan begins, since programmes are usually announced only in the final week of Shaban.

Laylatul Qadr and the last ten nights

The last ten nights of Ramadan begin on the evening of Saturday 27 February 2027, after the twentieth fast is completed. The odd nights, where the Night of Decree is most often sought, fall as follows in the Slough timetable:

• 21st night: evening of Saturday 27 February, leading into the fast of Sunday 28 February
• 23rd night: evening of Monday 1 March
• 25th night: evening of Wednesday 3 March
• 27th night: evening of Friday 5 March
• 29th night: evening of Sunday 7 March

Remember that the Islamic night begins at Maghrib, so the twenty seventh night is the night that follows the twenty sixth fast, not the night after the twenty seventh fast. Mosques in Slough that host itikaf will usually take names in the week before the last ten nights begin, and places are limited.

Practical tips for fasting in Slough

Plan around the Iftar rush

Iftar during the first half of Ramadan 2027 lands between 17:13 and 17:39, which collides directly with the evening commute on the A4, the M4 junction 5 and 6 corridor and the Elizabeth line into Slough station. If you commute into London, carry dates and water so you can open your fast wherever you happen to be rather than racing a train timetable.

Use the short winter fasts well

A fast of under twelve hours is genuinely manageable, so this is the year to be ambitious with Quran recitation, night prayer and charity rather than simply surviving the day. Set a realistic daily target in the first week and keep it steady rather than starting strongly and fading by the fifteenth fast.

Eat and drink deliberately at Sehri

Slow releasing foods such as oats, wholegrain bread, eggs, yoghurt, bananas and dates hold energy far better than fried or heavily sugared breakfasts. Cold February weather masks dehydration, so drink steadily between Iftar and Sehri instead of a single large glass at either end.

Speak to your GP if you have a health condition

Anyone managing diabetes, taking regular medication, pregnant, breastfeeding or recovering from illness should take medical advice before the month begins. NHS practices across Slough are used to these conversations and can often adjust medication timing around Sehri and Iftar. Islam grants clear concessions where fasting would cause harm, and taking them is not a failure.

Zakat al Fitr and Eid al Fitr 2027

Zakat al Fitr must be paid before the Eid prayer, and it is best given during the last few days of Ramadan so that it reaches families in time. United Kingdom mosques and charities will announce the 2027 rate closer to the month, usually in the region of five to seven pounds per household member, based on the cost of staple food.

Eid al Fitr 2027 is expected on Wednesday 10 March 2027 if Ramadan completes thirty days, or Tuesday 9 March if the crescent is sighted after twenty nine. Slough mosques generally hold several Eid jamaats between about 07:30 and 10:30 to manage numbers, with the larger congregations sometimes moving outdoors or into hired halls when the weather allows.
