Plan your Ramadan

A simple guide

01

Intend before Fajr

Niyyah (intention) is made silently in the heart each night for the next day's fast. No specific formula required.

02

Eat Suhoor

The pre-dawn meal is sunnah — prophetic guidance is to eat something, even a sip of water. It ends at the start of Fajr.

03

Break fast at Maghrib

Traditionally with dates and water, then pray Maghrib. Iftar is a blessed moment — du'a at that moment is accepted.

04

Pray Taraweeh

Nightly congregational prayers after Isha — 8 or 20 rak‘ahs. Many mosques complete the Qur'an over the month.

05

Give Zakat al-Fitr

A small obligatory charity paid per person before the Eid prayer so recipients can celebrate with it.

06

Seek Laylat al-Qadr

Pursue the Night of Power in the last ten nights — especially odd-numbered (21, 23, 25, 27, 29).

Frequently Asked

When does Ramadan 2027 start?+
Ramadan 2027 corresponds to 1448 AH and begins on Monday, February 8, 2027 (subject to local moon sighting). It continues for 29 or 30 days and ends with Eid al-Fitr on Wednesday, March 10, 2027.
When is Laylat al-Qadr in 2027?+
Laylat al-Qadr — the Night of Power — falls in the last ten nights of Ramadan, most commonly associated with the 27th night. In 2027 the 27th of Ramadan falls on Saturday, March 6, 2027. Scholars encourage seeking it across all odd-numbered nights of the last ten (21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, 29th) rather than fixing on one.
What breaks a fast during Ramadan?+
Intentionally eating, drinking, smoking or sexual intercourse during fasting hours (from Fajr to Maghrib) breaks the fast and generally requires making the day up later. Unintentional acts — such as forgetfully eating or drinking — do not. Non-fasters exempt on valid grounds (travel, illness, menstruation, pregnancy/breastfeeding difficulty) make up the days afterwards or pay fidyah when permanent exemption applies.
What is Taraweeh?+
Taraweeh are the special nightly prayers performed in congregation after Isha during Ramadan. They are sunnah (strongly recommended) — commonly 8 or 20 rak‘ahs — and in many mosques the Qur'an is recited cover-to-cover across the month. Anyone can also pray them at home.
What is Zakat al-Fitr and when is it due?+
Zakat al-Fitr (fitrah) is a small obligatory charity — roughly the value of one sa‘ of staple food per person — paid by every Muslim on behalf of themselves and their dependents. It must be paid before the Eid prayer so that the recipients can use it for Eid day itself. It is distinct from the annual Zakat al-Mal (2.5% on wealth) handled by the Zakat Calculator.
How do I find the exact Suhoor (Imsak) and Iftar times?+
Open the Prayer Times tool and pick your city — Suhoor ends at Fajr and Iftar begins at Maghrib, both to the minute. Singapore uses the MUIS official timetable; every other city uses trusted astronomical methods calibrated to the local Fajr and Maghrib conventions.
