Almaty Ramadan Calendar 2027 — Sehri & Iftar Times

This is the complete Ramadan 2027 calendar for Almaty, Kazakhstan, giving the daily fasting times in Almaty for all 30 days of Ramadan 1448 AH, from 8 February 2027 to Tue, 9 Mar 2027. Ramadan is expected to begin on Monday 8 February 2027 in Kazakhstan, subject to the sighting of the new moon, and to end with Eid al-Fitr around 9–10 March 2027. In Almaty the opening fast lasts 11 hours 49 minutes and the closing one 13 hours 9 minutes; and ends at 13 hours 9 minutes on day 30 (Fajr 04:42, Maghrib 17:51). The calculation point is Almaty (43.22, 76.85) and the method is Muslim World League (Asia/Almaty) — treat the rows as exact for Almaty and as a close guide elsewhere in Kazakhstan.

How to read the day in Almaty: begin it at Fajr (05:24 on day 1, drifting to 04:42 by day 30), end it at Maghrib, and let Sehri finish a few minutes before the Fajr figure as a precaution. Nothing is eaten or drunk from Fajr until Maghrib, and the fast it ends has lasted 11 hours 49 minutes growing or shrinking to 13 hours 9 minutes across the table. Break it, as the Sunnah teaches, with dates and water before praying. Notice the drift measured in this table: Because the month falls in late winter at Almaty's latitude (43.2), daylight is lengthening through Ramadan: each week the fast starts a little earlier and ends a little later than the week before. Inside these rows sit the odd nights of the last ten days — opening at Maghrib on 27 February, 1, 3, 5 and 7 March — when Laylat al-Qadr is sought; the 27th night opens at Maghrib on 5 March, which in Almaty is the 17:47 Iftar of Ramadan day 26's row, and its fast follows at Fajr 04:45.

Hanafi, Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali times in Almaty

Whichever madhab you follow in Almaty, your fast itself does not move. Fajr and Maghrib — the two ends of the fast — are not a madhab question in Almaty: all four schools fast from the same dawn to the same sunset. The printed pair on day 1 — 14:48 (Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali) and 15:30 (Hanafi) — encodes the classical shadow disagreement, and the table keeps both columns all month so nobody has to convert by hand. A household in Almaty that mixes madhabs can therefore share one calendar honestly: one Sehri, one Iftar, and two Asr times, each person praying by their own school.

Jafari Sehri and Iftar times in Almaty

The Jafari convention sits alongside this calendar as a clearly labelled adjustment. Applied to Almaty: day 1 Sehri 05:14 (Fajr 05:24 minus 10) and Iftar 17:25 (Maghrib 17:13 plus 12); day 30 Sehri 04:32 and Iftar 18:03. Where your own marja's ruling differs from the 10/12-minute convention, follow that ruling; the tab exists to make the common practice easy to find, not to settle a point of taqlid.

Duas for Sehri and Iftar

Dua at Sehri (intention): Wa bi-sawmi ghadin nawytu min shahri Ramadan — "I intend to keep the fast for tomorrow in the month of Ramadan." Dua at Iftar: Allahumma inni laka sumtu wa bika aamantu wa 'alayka tawakkaltu wa 'ala rizqika aftartu — "O Allah, I fasted for You, I believe in You, I trust in You, and I break my fast with the provision You have given." Keep both short duas by the table in Almaty: the first is said quietly with the intention before Fajr (05:24 on day 1), the second at the moment of Iftar, with dates and water, before the Maghrib prayer. In the last ten nights add the Laylat al-Qadr dua taught by the Prophet: Allahumma innaka 'afuwwun tuhibbul-'afwa fa'fu 'anni — "O Allah, You are Pardoning and You love pardon, so pardon me."

Notes on this calendar

Method and honesty note for Almaty: calculation method Muslim World League, calculation point Almaty (Asia/Almaty). Fajr and Isha rest on the method's sun angles; Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr and Maghrib follow the sun's actual position over Almaty. Times are printed to the minute, as calculated; a one-minute precaution at Sehri and Iftar is a long-standing local practice in many communities, and your mosque's timetable — which may already include it — takes precedence in any close call.

The thirtieth row is insurance, not a promise. Ramadan closes at 29 days if the new crescent is sighted on that evening, and only runs to the Tue, 9 Mar 2027 row — Fajr 04:42, Maghrib 17:51 in Almaty — if it is not. an Eid announced in Kazakhstan after 29 fasts retires the last row unused, and its 17:51 Iftar in Almaty never happens. If Kazakhstan's start is announced a day later than 8 February 2027, the whole table shifts by one row — the times move with the dates. Calculation methods also matter more at the edges of the day than in the middle: the Muslim World League convention fixes the sun angles for Fajr and Isha used for Almaty, while Dhuhr, Asr and Maghrib follow the sun directly, which is why timetables from different sources agree on Iftar to the minute but sometimes differ slightly at Fajr and Isha.

Finally, a practical word for people whose days are long or whose work is physical: fasts of 11 hours 49 minutes at the start becoming 13 hours 9 minutes by the end. Where health, medication, pregnancy or travel enters the picture, the ruling may change entirely. The exemptions, and the Fidya and Qaza that follow from them, are covered in the guides linked below; when in doubt, ask a scholar rather than abandoning the fast or harming your health. May Allah accept it from you and from us, and bless the month for Almaty.

Frequently asked questions

When does Ramadan 2027 start in Almaty?

Planning in Almaty runs on Monday 8 February 2027 as the first day of Ramadan 1448 AH, subject to the sighting of the new moon and the official announcement followed in Kazakhstan. A one-day slip in the start moves the whole table by one row: shift every row by one day; the drift across the month in Almaty is gradual — Fajr moves 42 minutes earlier in total — so no day's times change abruptly.

What are the Sehri and Iftar times in Almaty on the first day of Ramadan 2027?

Sehri on the first day in Almaty must finish by Fajr 05:24 in Almaty, and Iftar is at Maghrib 17:13. From that Fajr, nothing is eaten or drunk until Iftar — a fast of 11 hours 49 minutes. By the last day of the table Fajr has moved to 04:42 and Maghrib to 17:51, so check the row for each day rather than reusing the day-1 times.

Which calculation method does the Almaty Ramadan calendar use?

The Muslim World League convention — the method customary for Almaty — which is the convention customarily used for this part of Kazakhstan. Fajr gives the Sehri end time and Maghrib gives Iftar; the method's sun angles are what fix Fajr at 05:24 and Isha at 18:45 on day 1, while Dhuhr (12:07) and Maghrib follow the sun directly. Communities and mosques occasionally adjust by a minute or two for precaution, so treat your local mosque's timetable as final where it differs slightly. A branded PDF calendar for Almaty, in the madhab you select, can be downloaded from the live version of this page.

Why are there two Asr times for Almaty, and which one should I use?

Asr is where the madhab choice shows up in Almaty's table — Sehri and Iftar do not change. On day 1 the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali Asr is 14:48, while the Hanafi Asr is 15:30 — 42 minutes later. Both timings are classical and agreed within their schools — they rest on different readings of the shadow hadith, not on geography, so the gap in Almaty (42 minutes on day 1, 48 minutes on day 30) is a fiqh difference, not a calculation error. Follow the madhab you normally pray by, and use the same column all month so your Taraweeh and Iftar routine stays consistent.

What is the longest fast in Almaty during Ramadan 2027?

The longest fast in this table is day 30 (Tue, 9 Mar 2027), at 13 hours 9 minutes — Fajr 04:42 to Maghrib 17:51. The shortest is day 1 at 11 hours 49 minutes, and day 1 runs 11 hours 49 minutes against day 30's 13 hours 9 minutes. If Ramadan completes 30 days where you are, the final evening's Maghrib is followed by the night of Eid; if the new moon is sighted a day earlier, Eid falls a day sooner and the final row is not used.

What are the Jafari (Shia) Sehri and Iftar times in Almaty?

The Jafari tab on this page applies the customary precaution: Sehri ends 10 minutes before the Fajr in the main table, and Iftar begins 12 minutes after Maghrib. On day 1 in Almaty that means Sehri by 05:14 (Fajr 05:24 minus 10 minutes) and Iftar at 17:25 (Maghrib 17:13 plus 12 minutes). The main table itself is unchanged — it prints the Fajr and Maghrib every fiqh starts from, and the Jafari figures are a clearly labelled adjustment to those two moments only; Asr, Dhuhr and Isha are not moved.
