Home / Ramadan Times / United Kingdom / Manchester
For Manchester, the table below prints every fasting day of Ramadan 1448 AH — giving the daily fasting times in Manchester for all 30 days of Ramadan 1448 AH, 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. The shape of the month in Manchester: the fast begins at 11 hours 22 minutes on day 1 (Fajr 05:43, Maghrib 17:05) and by day 30 those bookends have moved to 04:42 and 18:01, a fast of 13 hours 19 minutes. Times are calculated for Manchester itself using the Muslim World League method (Europe/London), so if you live elsewhere in United Kingdom your local times may differ by a few minutes — the further you are from Manchester, the more you should prefer your local mosque's published timetable.
How to read the day in Manchester: Sehri ends at the Fajr figure — 05:43 at the month's start, 04:42 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, when the fast is broken at the Iftar time, traditionally with dates and water before the Maghrib prayer. In Manchester that wait is 11 hours 22 minutes on the first day and 13 hours 19 minutes on the last. The drift is the reason the table exists row by row: across the month Fajr travels 61 minutes and Maghrib 56 minutes in Manchester, so a first-week printout is measurably wrong by the fourth week. 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 Manchester the 27th night — from Maghrib on 5 March — follows a day whose fast ran 04:50 to 17:56.

Whichever madhab you follow in Manchester, your fast itself does not move. Sehri (Fajr) and Iftar (Maghrib) are shared by Hanafi, Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali alike — in Manchester that is 05:43 and 17:05 on the first day and 04:42 and 18:01 on the last. The printed pair on day 1 — 14:35 (Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali) and 15:13 (Hanafi) — encodes the classical shadow disagreement, and the table keeps both columns all month so nobody has to convert by hand. A household in Manchester that mixes madhabs can therefore share one calendar honestly: one Sehri, one Iftar, and two Asr times, each person praying by their own school.
The Jafari convention sits alongside this calendar as a clearly labelled adjustment. In numbers for Manchester: Sehri moves from 05:43 to 05:33 and Iftar from 17:05 to 17:17 on the first day, drifting with the table to 04:32 and 18:13 by the last. Only the fast's endpoints move — the prayer times in between stay exactly as the Muslim World League method calculates them for Manchester.
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 Manchester: the first is said quietly with the intention before Fajr (05:43 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."
Method and honesty note for Manchester: the Muslim World League method, applied to Manchester itself (53.48, -2.24, Europe/London), 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.
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: If Eid is announced after 29 fasts in United Kingdom, the final row (Tue, 9 Mar 2027, Iftar 18:01 in Manchester) 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 Muslim World League convention fixes the sun angles for Fajr and Isha used for Manchester, 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.
Finally, a practical word for people whose days are long or whose work is physical: the fast in Manchester runs from 11 hours 22 minutes at its shortest (day 1) to 13 hours 19 minutes at its longest (day 30), and your own situation — illness, medication, pregnancy, travel — may carry a ruling of its own. Guides linked below work through the exemptions and what replaces a missed fast — Fidya or Qaza — and a scholar in United Kingdom can apply them to your case. May Allah accept it from you and from us, and bless the month for Manchester.
Ramadan 1448 AH is expected to begin on Monday 8 February 2027 in Manchester, United Kingdom, subject to the sighting of the new moon and the official announcement followed in United Kingdom. Should the start be announced a day later, the month begins a day later and every date in this table shifts by one day — the times themselves, computed for Manchester, barely move between neighbouring days.
The first Sehri deadline in Manchester is 05:43 in Manchester, and Iftar is at Maghrib 17:05. Eat and drink before that time; the fast then runs 11 hours 22 minutes until Maghrib. Across the thirty rows the Sehri deadline travels from 05:43 to 04:42, which is why the table prints every day separately.
The Muslim World League convention — the method customary for Manchester — produces every time in this table for Manchester, in the Europe/London zone. Under this method, day 1 in Manchester opens at Fajr 05:43 and closes at Maghrib 17:05. 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 Manchester, 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. Day 1 makes it concrete: Asr at 14:35 on the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali calculation, and at 15:13 on the Hanafi calculation, a difference of 38 minutes. 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.
In Manchester the month peaks on day 30: 13 hours 19 minutes from Fajr 04:42 to Maghrib 18:01 (Tue, 9 Mar 2027). The shortest is day 1 at 11 hours 22 minutes, and day 1 runs 11 hours 22 minutes against day 30's 13 hours 19 minutes. Because the month falls in late winter at Manchester's latitude (53.5), daylight is lengthening through Ramadan: each week the fast starts a little earlier and ends a little later than the week before.
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 Manchester on day 1: Sehri 05:33 and Iftar 17:17. By day 30 those precautionary times have moved to 04:32 and 18:13. Treat the Jafari times as the precautionary practice they are labelled as, and follow your own marja's guidance where it differs.
