Home / Ramadan Times / Australia / Canberra
For Canberra, the table below prints every fasting day of Ramadan 1448 AH — thirty rows running from 8 February 2027 to Tue, 9 Mar 2027. Expected boundaries for Australia: a first fast on Monday 8 February 2027, subject to the crescent, and Eid al-Fitr around 9–10 March 2027. The shape of the month in Canberra: the fast begins at 15 hours 11 minutes on day 1 (Fajr 04:55, Maghrib 20:06) Fajr drifts 35 minutes later and Maghrib 35 minutes later between the two ends of the table. Times are calculated for Canberra itself using the Muslim World League method (Australia/Sydney), so if you live elsewhere in Australia your local times may differ by a few minutes — the further you are from Canberra, the more you should prefer your local mosque's published timetable.
How to read the day in Canberra: Sehri ends at the Fajr figure — 04:55 at the month's start, 05:30 at its end — and the fast, begun after the blessed pre-dawn meal taken just before that deadline, runs untouched until the Maghrib figure. Between those two times nothing passes the lips; the fast is then broken at Iftar, classically with dates and water before the prayer. The abstinence in Canberra lasts 15 hours 11 minutes at the month's opening and 14 hours 1 minutes at its close. The drift is the reason the table exists row by row: Because Canberra is in the southern hemisphere (latitude -35.3), Ramadan 2027 falls in late summer there: the days are long at the start of the month and shorten as it proceeds, which is the mirror image of the northern pattern. The most charged nights of the month fall inside this table — the last ten nights begin at Maghrib on 27 February 2027, and Laylat al-Qadr is sought on the odd nights beginning at Maghrib on 27 February, 1, 3, 5 and 7 March, with the 27th night of Ramadan beginning at Maghrib on 5 March; in Canberra that night's fast has run from Fajr 05:27 to Maghrib 19:35.

One calendar, four madhabs — and only one moving part. Sehri (Fajr) and Iftar (Maghrib) are shared by Hanafi, Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali alike — in Canberra that is 04:55 and 20:06 on the first day and 05:30 and 19:31 on the last. The printed pair on day 1 — 17:03 (Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali) and 18:07 (Hanafi) — encodes the classical shadow disagreement, and the table keeps both columns all month so nobody has to convert by hand. Choose your madhab once on the live page and the Asr column, the Today box and the downloadable PDF all follow it — the Sehri and Iftar columns will not change, because they were never in dispute.
Jafari (Shia) times are shown in their own tab on the live page, not mixed into the table above. Following the customary precaution, Sehri is completed 10 minutes before Fajr and Iftar is taken 12 minutes after Maghrib: in Canberra on day 1 that is Sehri by 04:45 and Iftar at 20:18, and on day 30 Sehri by 05:20 and Iftar at 19:43. 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.
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 Canberra: the first is said quietly with the intention before Fajr (04:55 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."
About these times in Canberra: the Muslim World League method, applied to Canberra itself (-35.28, 149.13, Australia/Sydney), produces the whole table; it is not a national average and it is not copied from a neighbouring city. 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.
Why thirty rows when Ramadan may end at twenty-nine? Because the month is completed at 30 only when the Shawwal crescent stays unseen on the 29th evening. The table prints all thirty so both endings are covered: an Eid announced in Australia after 29 fasts retires the last row unused, and its 19:31 Iftar in Canberra never happens. If Australia's start is announced a day later than 8 February 2027, the whole table shifts by one row — the times move with the dates. And where another timetable disagrees with this one, expect the difference at Fajr (04:55 here on day 1) or Isha (21:34), the two times the Muslim World League angles govern, rather than at Maghrib, which every method reads straight off the sunset.
Finally, a practical word for people whose days are long or whose work is physical: fasts of 15 hours 11 minutes at the start becoming 14 hours 1 minutes by the end. Where health, medication, pregnancy or travel enters the picture, the ruling may change entirely. Guides linked below work through the exemptions and what replaces a missed fast — Fidya or Qaza — and a scholar in Australia can apply them to your case. May Allah accept your fasts, your night prayers and your giving this month.
Planning in Canberra runs on Monday 8 February 2027 as the first day of Ramadan 1448 AH, pending the moon sighting that confirms it. 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 Canberra is gradual — Fajr moves 35 minutes later in total — so no day's times change abruptly.
Sehri on the first day in Canberra must finish by Fajr at 04:55 (Mon, 8 Feb 2027), and the fast is broken at Maghrib 20:06. From that Fajr, nothing is eaten or drunk until Iftar — a fast of 15 hours 11 minutes. By the last day of the table Fajr has moved to 05:30 and Maghrib to 19:31, so check the row for each day rather than reusing the day-1 times.
This calendar uses the Muslim World League method, the convention customary in Australia, with times computed for Canberra (Australia/Sydney, -35.28, 149.13). Fajr gives the Sehri end time and Maghrib gives Iftar; the method's sun angles are what fix Fajr at 04:55 and Isha at 21:34 on day 1, while Dhuhr (13:18) 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 Canberra, in the madhab you select, can be downloaded from the live version of this page.
Asr is where the madhab choice shows up in Canberra's table — Sehri and Iftar do not change. On day 1 the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali Asr is 17:03, while the Hanafi Asr is 18:07 — 64 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 Canberra (64 minutes on day 1, 55 minutes on day 30) is a fiqh difference, not a calculation error. Pick the column of your own madhab on the live page and the whole table — and the PDF download — follows that choice.
The longest fast in this table is day 1 (Mon, 8 Feb 2027), at 15 hours 11 minutes — Fajr 04:55 to Maghrib 20:06. The shortest is day 30 at 14 hours 1 minutes, and day 1 runs 15 hours 11 minutes against day 30's 14 hours 1 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.
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. For Canberra on day 1: Sehri 04:45 and Iftar 20:18. By day 30 those precautionary times have moved to 05:20 and 19:43. Nothing else in the table changes for Jafari readers: the adjustment touches only the start and end of the fast, and it is labelled as Jafari practice rather than mixed into the Sunni madhab columns.
