Home / Ramadan Times / Malaysia / George Town (Penang)
This is the complete Ramadan 2027 calendar for George Town (Penang), Malaysia, 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. Expected boundaries for Malaysia: a first fast on Monday 8 February 2027, subject to the crescent, and Eid al-Fitr around 9–10 March 2027. The shape of the month in George Town (Penang): the fast begins at 13 hours 14 minutes on day 1 (Fajr 06:16, Maghrib 19:30) and by day 30 those bookends have moved to 06:11 and 19:31, a fast of 13 hours 20 minutes. The calculation point is George Town (Penang) (5.42, 100.33) and the method is Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia (JAKIM) (Asia/Kuala_Lumpur) — treat the rows as exact for George Town (Penang) and as a close guide elsewhere in Malaysia.
Reading a row in George Town (Penang): Sehri ends at the Fajr figure — 06:16 at the month's start, 06:11 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, and the fast it ends has lasted 13 hours 14 minutes growing or shrinking to 13 hours 20 minutes across the table. Break it, as the Sunnah teaches, with dates and water before praying. Notice the drift measured in this table: Fajr moves 5 minutes earlier in total and Maghrib 1 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 George Town (Penang) is the 19:31 Iftar of Ramadan day 26's row, and its fast follows at Fajr 06:11.

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 George Town (Penang): all four schools fast from the same dawn to the same sunset. The printed pair on day 1 — 16:54 (Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali) and 17:51 (Hanafi) — encodes the classical shadow disagreement, and the table keeps both columns all month so nobody has to convert by hand. On the live page, choosing your madhab re-labels the table and the PDF calendar to your Asr; this static table simply prints both, side by side, so the choice is visible rather than hidden.
Jafari (Shia) times are shown in their own tab on the live page, not mixed into the table above. Applied to George Town (Penang): day 1 Sehri 06:06 (Fajr 06:16 minus 10) and Iftar 19:42 (Maghrib 19:30 plus 12); day 30 Sehri 06:01 and Iftar 19:43. 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 George Town (Penang): the first is said quietly with the intention before Fajr (06:16 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 George Town (Penang): every time is calculated for George Town (Penang)'s coordinates (5.42, 100.33) in the Asia/Kuala_Lumpur time zone, using the Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia (JAKIM) method — the convention customary for Malaysia. Mosques in George Town (Penang) may differ by a minute or two where they add a precaution at Fajr or Maghrib; that difference is deliberate, not an error, and the mosque you pray with is the timetable to follow on the day.
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: Printing both endings is the only honest way to publish the table in advance. A later announced start shifts everything by a day; an earlier one is not possible once the month has begun. Method differences show up at the edges of the day — the Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia (JAKIM) Fajr of 06:16 and Isha of 20:42 on day 1 are convention, while Dhuhr (13:33), 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 George Town (Penang), plan around the month's shape: fasts of 13 hours 14 minutes at the start becoming 13 hours 20 minutes by the end. Where health, medication, pregnancy or travel enters the picture, the ruling may change entirely. Guides linked below work through the exemptions and what replaces a missed fast — Fidya or Qaza — and a scholar in Malaysia can apply them to your case. May Allah accept your fasts, your night prayers and your giving this month.
Ramadan 1448 AH is expected to begin on Monday 8 February 2027 in George Town (Penang), Malaysia, with the month opening the night before — always subject to the crescent and to the announcement Malaysia's authorities or communities follow. Should the start be announced a day later, day 1's times (06:16 Fajr, 19:30 Maghrib in George Town (Penang)) would simply attach to the following Gregorian date.
Sehri on the first day in George Town (Penang) must finish by Fajr 06:16 on Mon, 8 Feb 2027 — and that first fast ends at Maghrib 19:30. Eat and drink before that time; the fast then runs 13 hours 14 minutes until Maghrib. Fajr drifts 5 minutes earlier across the month in George Town (Penang), ending at 06:11 on day 30, while Iftar moves to 19:31.
This calendar uses the Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia (JAKIM) method, the convention customary in Malaysia, with times computed for George Town (Penang) (Asia/Kuala_Lumpur, 5.42, 100.33). The method matters most at the day's edges — Fajr (06:16 on day 1) and Isha (20:42) — 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 George Town (Penang), 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. In George Town (Penang) on day 1 that is 16:54 for Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali worshippers and 17:51 for Hanafi worshippers — 57 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 George Town (Penang) (57 minutes on day 1, 65 minutes on day 30) is a fiqh difference, not a calculation error. If you pray in congregation, follow your mosque's column; the printed table keeps both so a household of mixed madhabs can still share one calendar.
The longest fast in this table is day 28 (Sun, 7 Mar 2027), at 13 hours 20 minutes — Fajr 06:11 to Maghrib 19:31. Compare the shortest fast, day 1 at 13 hours 14 minutes: the whole month in George Town (Penang) spans only that narrow band between the two. Sitting close to the equator (latitude 5.4), George Town (Penang) sees only gentle changes across the month — dawn and sunset move by minutes rather than hours, and the fast stays close to 13 hours 14 minutes from the first row to the last.
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. On day 1 in George Town (Penang) that means Sehri by 06:06 (Fajr 06:16 minus 10 minutes) and Iftar at 19:42 (Maghrib 19:30 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.
