The full Ramadan 2027 calendar for Dammam, Saudi Arabia: thirty rows running from 8 February 2027 to Tue, 9 Mar 2027. The month is expected to open on Monday 8 February 2027 — moon sighting permitting — and to close with Eid al-Fitr around 9–10 March 2027. In Dammam the opening fast lasts 12 hours 27 minutes and the closing one 13 hours 8 minutes; and by day 30 those bookends have moved to 04:37 and 17:45, a fast of 13 hours 8 minutes. Times are calculated for Dammam itself using the Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah method (Asia/Riyadh), so if you live elsewhere in Saudi Arabia your local times may differ by a few minutes — the further you are from Dammam, the more you should prefer your local mosque's published timetable.
Reading a row in Dammam: begin it at Fajr (05:00 on day 1, drifting to 04:37 by day 30), end it at Maghrib, and let Sehri finish a few minutes before the Fajr figure as a precaution. Between those two times nothing passes the lips; and the fast it ends has lasted 12 hours 27 minutes growing or shrinking to 13 hours 8 minutes across the table. Break it, as the Sunnah teaches, with dates and water before praying. Watch the drift across the rows: across the month Fajr travels 23 minutes and Maghrib 18 minutes in Dammam, so a first-week printout is measurably wrong by the fourth week. 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 Dammam that night's fast has run from Fajr 04:40 to Maghrib 17:43.

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 Dammam that is 05:00 and 17:27 on the first day and 04:37 and 17:45 on the last. What differs is Asr: the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali calculation, printed here as 15:03 on day 1, begins when a shadow equals the object's length, while the Hanafi calculation, 15:50 on day 1, waits for twice the length — 47 minutes later in Dammam. 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. Applied to Dammam: day 1 Sehri 04:50 (Fajr 05:00 minus 10) and Iftar 17:39 (Maghrib 17:27 plus 12); day 30 Sehri 04:27 and Iftar 17:57. The adjustment touches only the two ends of the fast; it does not move Dhuhr, Asr or Isha, and it is presented as Jafari fiqh practice so that no reader mistakes a precautionary time for the Fajr or Maghrib of the main method.
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 Dammam: the first is said quietly with the intention before Fajr (05:00 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."
Method and honesty note for Dammam: calculation method Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah, calculation point Dammam (Asia/Riyadh). Fajr and Isha rest on the method's sun angles; Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr and Maghrib follow the sun's actual position over Dammam. 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.
A word about the last row. Ramadan lasts 29 or 30 days and is completed at 30 only if the Shawwal crescent is not sighted on the 29th evening. This table is printed with 30 days so that it covers either case: If Eid is announced after 29 fasts in Saudi Arabia, the final row (Tue, 9 Mar 2027, Iftar 17:45 in Dammam) simply does not apply, and Iftar on the 29th day is followed by the night of Eid instead. Conversely, if your community begins Ramadan a day later than the expected 8 February 2027 start, shift every row by one day. Calculation methods also matter more at the edges of the day than in the middle: the Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah convention fixes the sun angles for Fajr and Isha used for Dammam, 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.
A practical closing note for Dammam: fasts of 12 hours 27 minutes at the start becoming 13 hours 8 minutes by the end. Where health, medication, pregnancy or travel enters the picture, the ruling may change entirely. Read the exemption guides below before deciding anything alone, and ask a scholar where your case is unclear: the fast is precious, and so is the health it was never meant to destroy. May Allah accept your fasting, your prayers and your charity throughout the month.
The expected first fast in Dammam is Monday 8 February 2027, with the month opening the night before — always subject to the crescent and to the announcement Saudi Arabia's authorities or communities follow. Should the start be announced a day later, shift every row by one day; the drift across the month in Dammam is gradual — Fajr moves 23 minutes earlier in total — so no day's times change abruptly.
Sehri on the first day in Dammam must finish by Fajr 05:00 on Mon, 8 Feb 2027 — and that first fast ends at Maghrib 17:27. From that Fajr, nothing is eaten or drunk until Iftar — a fast of 12 hours 27 minutes. By the last day of the table Fajr has moved to 04:37 and Maghrib to 17:45, so check the row for each day rather than reusing the day-1 times.
This calendar uses the Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah method, which is the convention customarily used for this part of Saudi Arabia. The method matters most at the day's edges — Fajr (05:00 on day 1) and Isha (19:27) — since Dhuhr, Asr and Maghrib track the visible sun. 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 Dammam, in the madhab you select, can be downloaded from the live version of this page.
Asr is where the madhab choice shows up in Dammam's table — Sehri and Iftar do not change. In Dammam on day 1 that is 15:03 for Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali worshippers and 15:50 for Hanafi worshippers — 47 minutes apart. The Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali position starts Asr when the shadow matches the object's height; the Hanafi position starts it when the shadow reaches twice the height, which is why the Hanafi time always falls later. If you pray in congregation, follow your mosque's column; the printed table keeps both so a household of mixed madhabs can still share one calendar.
Day 30 is the longest in Dammam: 13 hours 8 minutes between Fajr 04:37 and Maghrib 17:45. Day 1 lasts 12 hours 27 minutes and the last day 13 hours 8 minutes, with the shortest fast — day 1, 12 hours 27 minutes — in between. 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.
Jafari practice in Dammam is shown separately on the live page: stop eating 10 minutes before Fajr, and break the fast 12 minutes after Maghrib. For Dammam on day 1: Sehri 04:50 and Iftar 17:39. By day 30 those precautionary times have moved to 04:27 and 17:57. 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.
