Kuwait City Ramadan Calendar 2027 — Sehri & Iftar Times

For Kuwait City, the table below prints every fasting day of Ramadan 1448 AH — Sehri, Sunrise, Dhuhr, both Asr times, Iftar and Isha for each of the month's thirty days, 8 February 2027 to Tue, 9 Mar 2027. Ramadan is expected to begin on Monday 8 February 2027 in Kuwait, subject to the sighting of the new moon, and to end with Eid al-Fitr around 9–10 March 2027. The shape of the month in Kuwait City: the fast begins at 12 hours 20 minutes on day 1 (Fajr 05:12, Maghrib 17:32) Fajr drifts 25 minutes earlier and Maghrib 20 minutes earlier between the two ends of the table. Every time is computed for Kuwait City by the Kuwait method (Asia/Kuwait). Elsewhere in Kuwait, longitude shifts the minutes; a local mosque timetable outranks this city table wherever the two disagree.

Each row of the Kuwait City 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, 05:12 on day 1 and 04:47 on day 30, and many families stop eating a few minutes earlier as a precaution. The Iftar moment is the Maghrib figure — 17:32 on day 1, 17:52 on day 30 — the fast is then broken at Iftar, classically with dates and water before the prayer. The abstinence in Kuwait City lasts 12 hours 20 minutes at the month's opening and 13 hours 5 minutes at its close. The drift is the reason the table exists row by row: Fajr moves 25 minutes earlier in total and Maghrib 20 minutes earlier, a minute or two at a time, which is why a printed time from the first week should never be reused in the last. 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 Kuwait City is the 17:51 Iftar of Ramadan day 26's row, and its fast follows at Fajr 04:49.

Hanafi, Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali times in Kuwait City

One calendar, four madhabs — and only one moving part. Fajr and Maghrib — the two ends of the fast — are not a madhab question in Kuwait City: all four schools fast from the same dawn to the same sunset. Asr is the difference: 15:08 on day 1 for Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali (shadow equal to length), 15:54 for Hanafi (shadow twice the length), a gap of 46 minutes that widens or narrows only slightly by day 30 (15:20 against 16:12, 52 minutes). A household in Kuwait City 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 Kuwait City

The Jafari convention sits alongside this calendar as a clearly labelled adjustment. Applied to Kuwait City: day 1 Sehri 05:02 (Fajr 05:12 minus 10) and Iftar 17:44 (Maghrib 17:32 plus 12); day 30 Sehri 04:37 and Iftar 18:04. 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 Kuwait City: the first is said quietly with the intention before Fajr (05:12 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 Kuwait City calendar was calculated: the Kuwait method, applied to Kuwait City itself (29.38, 47.98, Asia/Kuwait), produces the whole table; it is not a national average and it is not copied from a neighbouring city. 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.

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 04:47, Maghrib 17:52 in Kuwait City — if it is not. If Eid is announced after 29 fasts in Kuwait, the final row (Tue, 9 Mar 2027, Iftar 17:52 in Kuwait City) simply does not apply, and Iftar on the 29th day is followed by the night of Eid instead. If Kuwait's start is announced a day later than 8 February 2027, the whole table shifts by one row — the times move with the dates. Method differences show up at the edges of the day — the Kuwait Fajr of 05:12 and Isha of 18:50 on day 1 are convention, while Dhuhr (12:02), Asr and Maghrib are the sun itself, which is why rival tables agree on Iftar and quarrel politely over Sehri.

A practical closing note for Kuwait City: the fast in Kuwait City runs from 12 hours 20 minutes at its shortest (day 1) to 13 hours 5 minutes at its longest (day 30), and your own situation — illness, medication, pregnancy, travel — may carry a ruling of its own. 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 it from you and from us, and bless the month for Kuwait City.

Frequently asked questions

When does Ramadan 2027 start in Kuwait City?

Ramadan 1448 AH is expected to begin on Monday 8 February 2027 in Kuwait City, Kuwait, subject to the sighting of the new moon and the official announcement followed in Kuwait. Should the start be announced a day later, shift every row by one day; the drift across the month in Kuwait City is gradual — Fajr moves 25 minutes earlier in total — so no day's times change abruptly.

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

The first Sehri deadline in Kuwait City is at 05:12 (Mon, 8 Feb 2027), and the fast is broken at Maghrib 17:32. From that Fajr, nothing is eaten or drunk until Iftar — a fast of 12 hours 20 minutes. By the last day of the table Fajr has moved to 04:47 and Maghrib to 17:52, so check the row for each day rather than reusing the day-1 times.

Which calculation method does the Kuwait City Ramadan calendar use?

This calendar uses the Kuwait method, the convention customary in Kuwait, with times computed for Kuwait City (Asia/Kuwait, 29.38, 47.98). Fajr gives the Sehri end time and Maghrib gives Iftar; the method's sun angles are what fix Fajr at 05:12 and Isha at 18:50 on day 1, while Dhuhr (12:02) 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 Kuwait City, in the madhab you select, can be downloaded from the live version of this page.

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

Only Asr changes with the madhab in Kuwait City; Fajr (Sehri) and Maghrib (Iftar) are identical for everyone. In Kuwait City on day 1 that is 15:08 for Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali worshippers and 15:54 for Hanafi worshippers — 46 minutes apart. 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 Kuwait City (46 minutes on day 1, 52 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.

What is the longest fast in Kuwait City during Ramadan 2027?

The longest fast in this table is day 30 (Tue, 9 Mar 2027), at 13 hours 5 minutes — Fajr 04:47 to Maghrib 17:52. The shortest is day 1 at 12 hours 20 minutes, and day 1 runs 12 hours 20 minutes against day 30's 13 hours 5 minutes. That shape is fixed by Kuwait City's latitude (29.4) and the February–March season, not by the calculation method: every method agrees on Fajr and Maghrib to within a minute or two here.

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

Jafari practice in Kuwait City is shown separately on the live page: stop eating 10 minutes before Fajr, and break the fast 12 minutes after Maghrib. Day 1 in Kuwait City: Sehri 05:02, Iftar 17:44; day 30: Sehri 04:37, Iftar 18:04. Treat the Jafari times as the precautionary practice they are labelled as, and follow your own marja's guidance where it differs.
