Home / Ramadan Times / Saudi Arabia / Madinah
This is the complete Ramadan 2027 calendar for Madinah, Saudi Arabia, thirty rows running 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. In Madinah the opening fast lasts 12 hours 31 minutes and the closing one 13 hours 9 minutes; Fajr drifts 22 minutes earlier and Maghrib 16 minutes earlier between the two ends of the table. The calculation point is Madinah (24.52, 39.57) and the method is Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah (Asia/Riyadh) — treat the rows as exact for Madinah and as a close guide elsewhere in Saudi Arabia.
Reading a row in Madinah: 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, 05:41 on day 1 and 05:19 on day 30, and many families stop eating a few minutes earlier as a precaution. 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 Madinah lasts 12 hours 31 minutes at the month's opening and 13 hours 9 minutes at its close. Notice the drift measured in this table: across the month Fajr travels 22 minutes and Maghrib 16 minutes in Madinah, 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 Madinah that night's fast has run from Fajr 05:22 to Maghrib 18:26.

The madhab selector on the live page exists for exactly one column. The Hanafi, Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali schools all begin the fast at Fajr and end it at Maghrib, so Sehri and Iftar in Madinah are the same 05:41 and 18:12 on day 1 for every Sunni worshipper. What differs is Asr: the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali calculation, printed here as 15:47 on day 1, begins when a shadow equals the object's length, while the Hanafi calculation, 16:35 on day 1, waits for twice the length — 48 minutes later in Madinah. 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. Applied to Madinah: day 1 Sehri 05:31 (Fajr 05:41 minus 10) and Iftar 18:24 (Maghrib 18:12 plus 12); day 30 Sehri 05:09 and Iftar 18:40. 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.
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 Madinah: the first is said quietly with the intention before Fajr (05:41 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."
How this Madinah calendar was calculated: every time is calculated for Madinah's coordinates (24.52, 39.57) in the Asia/Riyadh time zone, using the Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah method — the convention customary for Saudi Arabia. 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.
Why thirty rows when Ramadan may end at twenty-nine? Because the month is completed at 30 only when the Shawwal crescent stays unseen on the 29th evening. The table prints all thirty so both endings are covered: If Eid is announced after 29 fasts in Saudi Arabia, the final row (Tue, 9 Mar 2027, Iftar 18:28 in Madinah) simply does not apply, and Iftar on the 29th day is followed by the night of Eid instead. Conversely, if your community begins Ramadan a day later than the expected 8 February 2027 start, shift every row by one day. Calculation methods also matter more at the edges of the day than in the middle: the Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah convention fixes the sun angles for Fajr and Isha used for Madinah, 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 Madinah: the month's fasts here span 12 hours 31 minutes to 13 hours 9 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 Saudi Arabia can apply them to your case. May Allah accept it from you and from us, and bless the month for Madinah.
The expected first fast in Madinah is Monday 8 February 2027, subject to the sighting of the new moon and the official announcement followed in Saudi Arabia. A one-day slip in the start moves the whole table by one row: day 1's times (05:41 Fajr, 18:12 Maghrib in Madinah) would simply attach to the following Gregorian date.
On day 1 (Mon, 8 Feb 2027, 1 Ramaḍān 1448), Sehri ends at Fajr, 05:41 on Mon, 8 Feb 2027 — and that first fast ends at Maghrib 18:12. That first fast lasts 12 hours 31 minutes. Fajr drifts 22 minutes earlier across the month in Madinah, ending at 05:19 on day 30, while Iftar moves to 18:28.
Times here follow the Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah method for Madinah (Asia/Riyadh), which is the convention customarily used for this part of Saudi Arabia. Fajr gives the Sehri end time and Maghrib gives Iftar; the method's sun angles are what fix Fajr at 05:41 and Isha at 20:12 on day 1, while Dhuhr (12:36) 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 Madinah, in the madhab you select, can be downloaded from the live version of this page.
Only Asr changes with the madhab in Madinah; Fajr (Sehri) and Maghrib (Iftar) are identical for everyone. In Madinah on day 1 that is 15:47 for Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali worshippers and 16:35 for Hanafi worshippers — 48 minutes apart. 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.
The longest fast in this table is day 30 (Tue, 9 Mar 2027), at 13 hours 9 minutes — Fajr 05:19 to Maghrib 18:28. The shortest is day 1 at 12 hours 31 minutes, and day 1 runs 12 hours 31 minutes against day 30's 13 hours 9 minutes. Because the month falls in late winter at Madinah's latitude (24.5), daylight is lengthening through Ramadan: each week the fast starts a little earlier and ends a little later than the week before.
Jafari practice in Madinah 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 Madinah that means Sehri by 05:31 (Fajr 05:41 minus 10 minutes) and Iftar at 18:24 (Maghrib 18:12 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.
