The full Ramadan 2027 calendar for Baghdad, Iraq: giving the daily fasting times in Baghdad for all 30 days of Ramadan 1448 AH, 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. Day 1 in Baghdad runs from Fajr at 05:29 to Maghrib at 17:40 — a fast of 12 hours 11 minutes — and ends at 13 hours 6 minutes on day 30 (Fajr 04:59, Maghrib 18:05). Every time is computed for Baghdad by the Muslim World League method (Asia/Baghdad). Elsewhere in Iraq, longitude shifts the minutes; a local mosque timetable outranks this city table wherever the two disagree.
Each row of the Baghdad table is one fast: the fast begins at Fajr, so Sehri — the pre-dawn meal the Prophet ﷺ called a blessing — must finish by the Fajr time in the Sehri column, 05:29 on day 1 and 04:59 on day 30, and many families stop eating a few minutes earlier as a precaution. The Iftar moment is the Maghrib figure — 17:40 on day 1, 18:05 on day 30 — and the fast it ends has lasted 12 hours 11 minutes growing or shrinking to 13 hours 6 minutes across the table. Break it, as the Sunnah teaches, with dates and water before praying. The drift is the reason the table exists row by row: across the month Fajr travels 30 minutes and Maghrib 25 minutes in Baghdad, so a first-week printout is measurably wrong by the fourth week. Mark the table's last third: the odd nights beginning at Maghrib on 27 February, 1, 3, 5 and 7 March carry the search for Laylat al-Qadr, and in Baghdad the 27th night — from Maghrib on 5 March — follows a day whose fast ran 05:03 to 18:03.

One calendar, four madhabs — and only one moving part. The Hanafi, Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali schools all begin the fast at Fajr and end it at Maghrib, so Sehri and Iftar in Baghdad are the same 05:29 and 17:40 on day 1 for every Sunni worshipper. The printed pair on day 1 — 15:17 (Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali) and 16:02 (Hanafi) — encodes the classical shadow disagreement, and the table keeps both columns all month so nobody has to convert by hand. A household in Baghdad 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 (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 Baghdad on day 1 that is Sehri by 05:19 and Iftar at 17:52, and on day 30 Sehri by 04:49 and Iftar at 18:17. Only the fast's endpoints move — the prayer times in between stay exactly as the Muslim World League method calculates them for Baghdad.
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 Baghdad: the first is said quietly with the intention before Fajr (05:29 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 Baghdad: the Muslim World League method, applied to Baghdad itself (33.32, 44.37, Asia/Baghdad), 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.
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 04:59, Maghrib 18:05 in Baghdad — if it is not. Printing both endings is the only honest way to publish the table in advance. If Iraq'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 (05:29 here on day 1) or Isha (19:00), 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 12 hours 11 minutes at the start becoming 13 hours 6 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 your fasting, your prayers and your charity throughout the month.
Planning in Baghdad runs on Monday 8 February 2027 as the first day of Ramadan 1448 AH, with the month opening the night before — always subject to the crescent and to the announcement Iraq's authorities or communities follow. If the crescent is not sighted on the expected evening, shift every row by one day; the drift across the month in Baghdad is gradual — Fajr moves 30 minutes earlier in total — so no day's times change abruptly.
Sehri on the first day in Baghdad must finish by Fajr 05:29 in Baghdad, and Iftar is at Maghrib 17:40. Eat and drink before that time; the fast then runs 12 hours 11 minutes until Maghrib. Fajr drifts 30 minutes earlier across the month in Baghdad, ending at 04:59 on day 30, while Iftar moves to 18:05.
This calendar uses the Muslim World League method, produces every time in this table for Baghdad, in the Asia/Baghdad zone. Under this method, day 1 in Baghdad opens at Fajr 05:29 and closes at Maghrib 17:40. 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 Baghdad, in the madhab you select, can be downloaded from the live version of this page.
The two Asr columns are the one place where the four Sunni madhabs differ on this calendar. On day 1 the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali Asr is 15:17, while the Hanafi Asr is 16:02 — 45 minutes later. 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. Pick the column of your own madhab on the live page and the whole table — and the PDF download — follows that choice.
Day 30 is the longest in Baghdad: 13 hours 6 minutes between Fajr 04:59 and Maghrib 18:05. Day 1 lasts 12 hours 11 minutes and the last day 13 hours 6 minutes, with the shortest fast — day 1, 12 hours 11 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 Baghdad is shown separately on the live page: stop eating 10 minutes before Fajr, and break the fast 12 minutes after Maghrib. On day 1 in Baghdad that means Sehri by 05:19 (Fajr 05:29 minus 10 minutes) and Iftar at 17:52 (Maghrib 17:40 plus 12 minutes). 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.
