Home / Ramadan Times / France / Lyon
For Lyon, the table below prints every fasting day of Ramadan 1448 AH — thirty rows running from 8 February 2027 to Tue, 9 Mar 2027. Expected boundaries for France: a first fast on Monday 8 February 2027, subject to the crescent, and Eid al-Fitr around 9–10 March 2027. Day 1 in Lyon runs from Fajr at 06:47 to Maghrib at 17:56 — a fast of 11 hours 9 minutes — and by day 30 those bookends have moved to 06:01 and 18:38, a fast of 12 hours 37 minutes. Times are calculated for Lyon itself using the Union Organization Islamic de France method (Europe/Paris), so if you live elsewhere in France your local times may differ by a few minutes — the further you are from Lyon, the more you should prefer your local mosque's published timetable.
How to read the day in Lyon: Sehri ends at the Fajr figure — 06:47 at the month's start, 06:01 at its end — and the fast, begun after the blessed pre-dawn meal taken just before that deadline, runs untouched until the Maghrib figure. Nothing is eaten or drunk from Fajr until Maghrib, the fast is then broken at Iftar, classically with dates and water before the prayer. The abstinence in Lyon lasts 11 hours 9 minutes at the month's opening and 12 hours 37 minutes at its close. Watch the drift across the rows: Because the month falls in late winter at Lyon's latitude (45.8), daylight is lengthening through Ramadan: each week the fast starts a little earlier and ends a little later than the week before. 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 Lyon the 27th night — from Maghrib on 5 March — follows a day whose fast ran 06:07 to 18:34.

Whichever madhab you follow in Lyon, your fast itself does not move. The Hanafi, Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali schools all begin the fast at Fajr and end it at Maghrib, so Sehri and Iftar in Lyon are the same 06:47 and 17:56 on day 1 for every Sunni worshipper. What differs is Asr: the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali calculation, printed here as 15:30 on day 1, begins when a shadow equals the object's length, while the Hanafi calculation, 16:11 on day 1, waits for twice the length — 41 minutes later in Lyon. 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. Following the customary precaution, Sehri is completed 10 minutes before Fajr and Iftar is taken 12 minutes after Maghrib: in Lyon on day 1 that is Sehri by 06:37 and Iftar at 18:08, and on day 30 Sehri by 05:51 and Iftar at 18:50. 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.
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 Lyon: the first is said quietly with the intention before Fajr (06:47 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."
About these times in Lyon: every time is calculated for Lyon's coordinates (45.76, 4.84) in the Europe/Paris time zone, using the Union Organization Islamic de France method — the convention customary for France. 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 06:01, Maghrib 18:38 in Lyon — if it is not. an Eid announced in France after 29 fasts retires the last row unused, and its 18:38 Iftar in Lyon never happens. Conversely, if your community begins Ramadan a day later than the expected 8 February 2027 start, shift every row by one day. Method differences show up at the edges of the day — the Union Organization Islamic de France Fajr of 06:47 and Isha of 19:03 on day 1 are convention, while Dhuhr (12:55), Asr and Maghrib are the sun itself, which is why rival tables agree on Iftar and quarrel politely over Sehri.
For workers on physical shifts in Lyon, plan around the month's shape: the month's fasts here span 11 hours 9 minutes to 12 hours 37 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. 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 fasts, your night prayers and your giving this month.
Planning in Lyon 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 France's authorities or communities follow. A one-day slip in the start moves the whole table by one row: shift every row by one day; the drift across the month in Lyon is gradual — Fajr moves 46 minutes earlier in total — so no day's times change abruptly.
The first Sehri deadline in Lyon is at 06:47 (Mon, 8 Feb 2027), and the fast is broken at Maghrib 17:56. Eat and drink before that time; the fast then runs 11 hours 9 minutes until Maghrib. Fajr drifts 46 minutes earlier across the month in Lyon, ending at 06:01 on day 30, while Iftar moves to 18:38.
This calendar uses the Union Organization Islamic de France method, the convention customary in France, with times computed for Lyon (Europe/Paris, 45.76, 4.84). The method matters most at the day's edges — Fajr (06:47 on day 1) and Isha (19:03) — 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 Lyon, 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 15:30, while the Hanafi Asr is 16:11 — 41 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. Follow the madhab you normally pray by, and use the same column all month so your Taraweeh and Iftar routine stays consistent.
Day 30 is the longest in Lyon: 12 hours 37 minutes between Fajr 06:01 and Maghrib 18:38. The shortest is day 1 at 11 hours 9 minutes, and day 1 runs 11 hours 9 minutes against day 30's 12 hours 37 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.
On the Jafari fiqh convention used alongside this calendar, Sehri is taken 10 minutes before Fajr as a precaution and Iftar is taken 12 minutes after Maghrib. For Lyon on day 1: Sehri 06:37 and Iftar 18:08. By day 30 those precautionary times have moved to 05:51 and 18:50. 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.
