Johor Bahru Ramadan Calendar 2027 — Sehri & Iftar Times

This is the complete Ramadan 2027 calendar for Johor Bahru, Malaysia, thirty rows running from 8 February 2027 to Tue, 9 Mar 2027. Ramadan is expected to begin on Monday 8 February 2027 in Malaysia, subject to the sighting of the new moon, and to end with Eid al-Fitr around 9–10 March 2027. Day 1 in Johor Bahru runs from Fajr at 05:58 to Maghrib at 19:21 — a fast of 13 hours 23 minutes — and by day 30 those bookends have moved to 05:56 and 19:18, a fast of 13 hours 22 minutes. Times are calculated for Johor Bahru itself using the Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia (JAKIM) method (Asia/Kuala_Lumpur), so if you live elsewhere in Malaysia your local times may differ by a few minutes — the further you are from Johor Bahru, the more you should prefer your local mosque's published timetable.

Reading a row in Johor Bahru: Sehri ends at the Fajr figure — 05:58 at the month's start, 05:56 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 Johor Bahru lasts 13 hours 23 minutes at the month's opening and 13 hours 22 minutes at its close. Notice the drift measured in this table: across the month Fajr travels 2 minutes and Maghrib 3 minutes in Johor Bahru, 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 Johor Bahru that night's fast has run from Fajr 05:57 to Maghrib 19:19.

Hanafi, Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali times in Johor Bahru

One calendar, four madhabs — and only one moving part. Fajr and Maghrib — the two ends of the fast — are not a madhab question in Johor Bahru: all four schools fast from the same dawn to the same sunset. The printed pair on day 1 — 16:40 (Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali) and 17:39 (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 Sehri and Iftar times in Johor Bahru

Jafari (Shia) times are shown in their own tab on the live page, not mixed into the table above. In numbers for Johor Bahru: Sehri moves from 05:58 to 05:48 and Iftar from 19:21 to 19:33 on the first day, drifting with the table to 05:46 and 19:30 by the last. 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.

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 Johor Bahru: the first is said quietly with the intention before Fajr (05:58 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

How this Johor Bahru calendar was calculated: every time is calculated for Johor Bahru's coordinates (1.49, 103.74) in the Asia/Kuala_Lumpur time zone, using the Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia (JAKIM) method — the convention customary for Malaysia. Allow a precaution of about one minute at each end of the fast — stop eating a minute before the printed Fajr and wait a minute after the printed Maghrib if you wish to be careful — and treat your local mosque's announced timetable as final wherever it differs by a minute or two, since mosques sometimes build that precaution in.

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: an Eid announced in Malaysia after 29 fasts retires the last row unused, and its 19:18 Iftar in Johor Bahru never happens. If Malaysia'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 Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia (JAKIM) convention fixes the sun angles for Fajr and Isha used for Johor Bahru, 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.

For workers on physical shifts in Johor Bahru, plan around the month's shape: the month's fasts here span 13 hours 22 minutes to 13 hours 23 minutes. That is manageable for most healthy adults, but illness, medication, pregnancy and travel each carry their own ruling, and no timetable can see your circumstances. Guides linked below work through the exemptions and what replaces a missed fast — Fidya or Qaza — and a scholar in Malaysia can apply them to your case. May Allah accept it from you and from us, and bless the month for Johor Bahru.

Frequently asked questions

When does Ramadan 2027 start in Johor Bahru?

Planning in Johor Bahru runs on Monday 8 February 2027 as the first day of Ramadan 1448 AH, pending the moon sighting that confirms it. Should the start be announced a day later, shift every row by one day; the drift across the month in Johor Bahru is gradual — Fajr moves 2 minutes earlier in total — so no day's times change abruptly.

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

Sehri on the first day in Johor Bahru must finish by Fajr 05:58 in Johor Bahru, and Iftar is at Maghrib 19:21. That first fast lasts 13 hours 23 minutes. Fajr drifts 2 minutes earlier across the month in Johor Bahru, ending at 05:56 on day 30, while Iftar moves to 19:18.

Which calculation method does the Johor Bahru Ramadan calendar use?

The Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia (JAKIM) convention — the method customary for Johor Bahru — which is the convention customarily used for this part of Malaysia. Fajr gives the Sehri end time and Maghrib gives Iftar; the method's sun angles are what fix Fajr at 05:58 and Isha at 20:32 on day 1, while Dhuhr (13:19) 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 Johor Bahru, in the madhab you select, can be downloaded from the live version of this page.

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

Asr is where the madhab choice shows up in Johor Bahru's table — Sehri and Iftar do not change. On day 1 the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali Asr is 16:40, while the Hanafi Asr is 17:39 — 59 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 Johor Bahru (59 minutes on day 1, 68 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 Johor Bahru during Ramadan 2027?

Day 1 is the longest in Johor Bahru: 13 hours 23 minutes between Fajr 05:58 and Maghrib 19:21. The shortest is day 19 at 13 hours 22 minutes, and day 1 runs 13 hours 23 minutes against day 30's 13 hours 22 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 Johor Bahru?

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. Day 1 in Johor Bahru: Sehri 05:48, Iftar 19:33; day 30: Sehri 05:46, Iftar 19:30. 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.
