Lucknow Ramadan Calendar 2027 — Sehri & Iftar Times

This is the complete Ramadan 2027 calendar for Lucknow, India, 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. 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 Lucknow runs from Fajr at 05:29 to Maghrib at 17:53 — a fast of 12 hours 24 minutes — and ends at 13 hours 5 minutes on day 30 (Fajr 05:06, Maghrib 18:11). Every time is computed for Lucknow by the University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi method (Asia/Kolkata). Elsewhere in India, longitude shifts the minutes; a local mosque timetable outranks this city table wherever the two disagree.

Reading a row in Lucknow: 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 05:06 on day 30, and many families stop eating a few minutes earlier as a precaution. 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 Lucknow lasts 12 hours 24 minutes at the month's opening and 13 hours 5 minutes at its close. Watch the drift across the rows: Because the month falls in late winter at Lucknow's latitude (26.8), daylight is lengthening through Ramadan: each week the fast starts a little earlier and ends a little later than the week before. 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 Lucknow that night's fast has run from Fajr 05:09 to Maghrib 18:10.

Hanafi, Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali times in Lucknow

The madhab selector on the live page exists for exactly one column. Fajr and Maghrib — the two ends of the fast — are not a madhab question in Lucknow: all four schools fast from the same dawn to the same sunset. Asr is the difference: 15:29 on day 1 for Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali (shadow equal to length), 16:16 for Hanafi (shadow twice the length), a gap of 47 minutes that widens or narrows only slightly by day 30 (15:39 against 16:31, 52 minutes). A household in Lucknow 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 Lucknow

For Jafari readers in Lucknow, the live page carries a separate Jafari tab built from this same table. Following the customary precaution, Sehri is completed 10 minutes before Fajr and Iftar is taken 12 minutes after Maghrib: in Lucknow on day 1 that is Sehri by 05:19 and Iftar at 18:05, and on day 30 Sehri by 04:56 and Iftar at 18:23. 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 Lucknow: 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."

Notes on this calendar

About these times in Lucknow: every time is calculated for Lucknow's coordinates (26.85, 80.95) in the Asia/Kolkata time zone, using the University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi method — the convention customary for India. 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 05:06, Maghrib 18:11 in Lucknow — if it is not. If Eid is announced after 29 fasts in India, the final row (Tue, 9 Mar 2027, Iftar 18:11 in Lucknow) simply does not apply, and Iftar on the 29th day is followed by the night of Eid instead. If India'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 University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi convention fixes the sun angles for Fajr and Isha used for Lucknow, 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 Lucknow: fasts of 12 hours 24 minutes at the start becoming 13 hours 5 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.

Frequently asked questions

When does Ramadan 2027 start in Lucknow?

Planning in Lucknow 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 India'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 Lucknow is gradual — Fajr moves 23 minutes earlier in total — so no day's times change abruptly.

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

On day 1 (Mon, 8 Feb 2027, 1 Ramaḍān 1448), Sehri ends at Fajr, 05:29 on Mon, 8 Feb 2027 — and that first fast ends at Maghrib 17:53. From that Fajr, nothing is eaten or drunk until Iftar — a fast of 12 hours 24 minutes. Fajr drifts 23 minutes earlier across the month in Lucknow, ending at 05:06 on day 30, while Iftar moves to 18:11.

Which calculation method does the Lucknow Ramadan calendar use?

The University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi convention — the method customary for Lucknow — which is the convention customarily used for this part of India. Fajr gives the Sehri end time and Maghrib gives Iftar; the method's sun angles are what fix Fajr at 05:29 and Isha at 19:12 on day 1, while Dhuhr (12:20) 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 Lucknow, in the madhab you select, can be downloaded from the live version of this page.

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

Asr is where the madhab choice shows up in Lucknow's table — Sehri and Iftar do not change. Day 1 makes it concrete: Asr at 15:29 on the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali calculation, and at 16:16 on the Hanafi calculation, a difference of 47 minutes. 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 Lucknow (47 minutes on day 1, 52 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 Lucknow during Ramadan 2027?

In Lucknow the month peaks on day 30: 13 hours 5 minutes from Fajr 05:06 to Maghrib 18:11 (Tue, 9 Mar 2027). Compare the shortest fast, day 1 at 12 hours 24 minutes: the whole month in Lucknow spans only that narrow band between the two. 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 Lucknow?

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 Lucknow on day 1: Sehri 05:19 and Iftar 18:05. By day 30 those precautionary times have moved to 04:56 and 18:23. 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.
