The full Ramadan 2027 calendar for Rotterdam, Netherlands: thirty rows running from 8 February 2027 to Tue, 9 Mar 2027. Expected boundaries for Netherlands: a first fast on Monday 8 February 2027, subject to the crescent, and Eid al-Fitr around 9–10 March 2027. In Rotterdam the opening fast lasts 11 hours 27 minutes and the closing one 13 hours 18 minutes; and by day 30 those bookends have moved to 05:18 and 18:36, a fast of 13 hours 18 minutes. Times are calculated for Rotterdam itself using the Muslim World League method (Europe/Amsterdam), so if you live elsewhere in Netherlands your local times may differ by a few minutes — the further you are from Rotterdam, the more you should prefer your local mosque's published timetable.
Each row of the Rotterdam table is one fast: 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, 06:16 on day 1 and 05:18 on day 30, and many families stop eating a few minutes earlier as a precaution. Between those two times nothing passes the lips; when the fast is broken at the Iftar time, traditionally with dates and water before the Maghrib prayer. In Rotterdam that wait is 11 hours 27 minutes on the first day and 13 hours 18 minutes on the last. Watch the drift across the rows: Fajr moves 58 minutes earlier in total and Maghrib 53 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. 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 Rotterdam that night's fast has run from Fajr 05:25 to Maghrib 18:30.

Whichever madhab you follow in Rotterdam, 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 Rotterdam are the same 06:16 and 17:43 on day 1 for every Sunni worshipper. The printed pair on day 1 — 15:13 (Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali) and 15:52 (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 Rotterdam: day 1 Sehri 06:06 (Fajr 06:16 minus 10) and Iftar 17:55 (Maghrib 17:43 plus 12); day 30 Sehri 05:08 and Iftar 18:48. Only the fast's endpoints move — the prayer times in between stay exactly as the Muslim World League method calculates them for Rotterdam.
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 Rotterdam: 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 Rotterdam: the Muslim World League method, applied to Rotterdam itself (51.92, 4.48, Europe/Amsterdam), produces the whole table; it is not a national average and it is not copied from a neighbouring city. Mosques in Rotterdam 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.
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 05:18, Maghrib 18:36 in Rotterdam — if it is not. If Eid is announced after 29 fasts in Netherlands, the final row (Tue, 9 Mar 2027, Iftar 18:36 in Rotterdam) simply does not apply, and Iftar on the 29th day is followed by the night of Eid instead. A later announced start shifts everything by a day; an earlier one is not possible once the month has begun. 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 Rotterdam, 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 month's fasts here span 11 hours 27 minutes to 13 hours 18 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 Netherlands can apply them to your case. May Allah accept your fasts, your night prayers and your giving this month.
The expected first fast in Rotterdam is Monday 8 February 2027, subject to the sighting of the new moon and the official announcement followed in Netherlands. If the crescent is not sighted on the expected evening, the month begins a day later and every date in this table shifts by one day — the times themselves, computed for Rotterdam, barely move between neighbouring days.
Sehri on the first day in Rotterdam must finish by Fajr at 06:16 (Mon, 8 Feb 2027), and the fast is broken at Maghrib 17:43. Eat and drink before that time; the fast then runs 11 hours 27 minutes until Maghrib. Across the thirty rows the Sehri deadline travels from 06:16 to 05:18, which is why the table prints every day separately.
This calendar uses the Muslim World League method, produces every time in this table for Rotterdam, in the Europe/Amsterdam zone. Under this method, day 1 in Rotterdam opens at Fajr 06:16 and closes at Maghrib 17:43. 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 Rotterdam, in the madhab you select, can be downloaded from the live version of this page.
Asr is where the madhab choice shows up in Rotterdam's table — Sehri and Iftar do not change. In Rotterdam on day 1 that is 15:13 for Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali worshippers and 15:52 for Hanafi worshippers — 39 minutes apart. The difference comes from the shadow rule: the first three schools begin Asr when an object's shadow equals its length (besides the noon shadow), while the Hanafi school waits until the shadow is twice the length. 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 18 minutes — Fajr 05:18 to Maghrib 18:36. Compare the shortest fast, day 1 at 11 hours 27 minutes: the whole month in Rotterdam spans only that narrow band between the two. Because the month falls in late winter at Rotterdam's latitude (51.9), 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 Rotterdam on day 1: Sehri 06:06 and Iftar 17:55. By day 30 those precautionary times have moved to 05:08 and 18:48. Treat the Jafari times as the precautionary practice they are labelled as, and follow your own marja's guidance where it differs.
