Sylhet Ramadan Calendar 2027 — Sehri & Iftar Times

The full Ramadan 2027 calendar for Sylhet, Bangladesh: giving the daily fasting times in Sylhet 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 Sylhet: the fast begins at 12 hours 28 minutes on day 1 (Fajr 05:14, Maghrib 17:42) Fajr drifts 21 minutes earlier and Maghrib 16 minutes earlier between the two ends of the table. The calculation point is Sylhet (24.90, 91.86) and the method is University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi (Asia/Dhaka) — treat the rows as exact for Sylhet and as a close guide elsewhere in Bangladesh.

Reading a row in Sylhet: begin it at Fajr (05:14 on day 1, drifting to 04:53 by day 30), end it at Maghrib, and let Sehri finish a few minutes before the Fajr figure 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 Sylhet that wait is 12 hours 28 minutes on the first day and 13 hours 5 minutes on the last. Notice the drift measured in this table: Fajr moves 21 minutes earlier in total and Maghrib 16 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 Sylhet that night's fast has run from Fajr 04:55 to Maghrib 17:57.

Hanafi, Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali times in Sylhet

Whichever madhab you follow in Sylhet, your fast itself does not move. Fajr and Maghrib — the two ends of the fast — are not a madhab question in Sylhet: all four schools fast from the same dawn to the same sunset. What differs is Asr: the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali calculation, printed here as 15:18 on day 1, begins when a shadow equals the object's length, while the Hanafi calculation, 16:05 on day 1, waits for twice the length — 47 minutes later in Sylhet. 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 Sehri and Iftar times in Sylhet

The Jafari convention sits alongside this calendar as a clearly labelled adjustment. Applied to Sylhet: day 1 Sehri 05:04 (Fajr 05:14 minus 10) and Iftar 17:54 (Maghrib 17:42 plus 12); day 30 Sehri 04:43 and Iftar 18:10. 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.

Duas for Sehri and Iftar

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 Sylhet: the first is said quietly with the intention before Fajr (05:14 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."

Notes on this calendar

How this Sylhet calendar was calculated: the University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi method, applied to Sylhet itself (24.90, 91.86, Asia/Dhaka), produces the whole table; it is not a national average and it is not copied from a neighbouring city. 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 04:53, Maghrib 17:58 in Sylhet — if it is not. If Eid is announced after 29 fasts in Bangladesh, the final row (Tue, 9 Mar 2027, Iftar 17:58 in Sylhet) simply does not apply, and Iftar on the 29th day is followed by the night of Eid instead. If Bangladesh's start is announced a day later than 8 February 2027, the whole table shifts by one row — the times move with the dates. Calculation methods also matter more at the edges of the day than in the middle: the University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi convention fixes the sun angles for Fajr and Isha used for Sylhet, 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.

For workers on physical shifts in Sylhet, plan around the month's shape: the fast in Sylhet runs from 12 hours 28 minutes at its shortest (day 1) to 13 hours 5 minutes at its longest (day 29), and your own situation — illness, medication, pregnancy, travel — may carry a ruling of its own. 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.

Frequently asked questions

When does Ramadan 2027 start in Sylhet?

Planning in Sylhet 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 Bangladesh'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 Sylhet is gradual — Fajr moves 21 minutes earlier in total — so no day's times change abruptly.

What are the Sehri and Iftar times in Sylhet on the first day of Ramadan 2027?

The first Sehri deadline in Sylhet is at 05:14 (Mon, 8 Feb 2027), and the fast is broken at Maghrib 17:42. From that Fajr, nothing is eaten or drunk until Iftar — a fast of 12 hours 28 minutes. By the last day of the table Fajr has moved to 04:53 and Maghrib to 17:58, so check the row for each day rather than reusing the day-1 times.

Which calculation method does the Sylhet Ramadan calendar use?

The University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi convention — the method customary for Sylhet — the convention customary in Bangladesh, with times computed for Sylhet (Asia/Dhaka, 24.90, 91.86). Under this method, day 1 in Sylhet opens at Fajr 05:14 and closes at Maghrib 17:42. 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 Sylhet, in the madhab you select, can be downloaded from the live version of this page.

Why are there two Asr times for Sylhet, and which one should I use?

Asr is where the madhab choice shows up in Sylhet's table — Sehri and Iftar do not change. Day 1 makes it concrete: Asr at 15:18 on the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali calculation, and at 16:05 on the Hanafi calculation, a difference of 47 minutes. 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 Sylhet (47 minutes on day 1, 54 minutes on day 30) is a fiqh difference, not a calculation error. Pick the column of your own madhab on the live page and the whole table — and the PDF download — follows that choice.

What is the longest fast in Sylhet during Ramadan 2027?

Day 29 is the longest in Sylhet: 13 hours 5 minutes between Fajr 04:53 and Maghrib 17:58. Day 1 lasts 12 hours 28 minutes and the last day 13 hours 5 minutes, with the shortest fast — day 1, 12 hours 28 minutes — in between. That shape is fixed by Sylhet's latitude (24.9) and the February–March season, not by the calculation method: every method agrees on Fajr and Maghrib to within a minute or two here.

What are the Jafari (Shia) Sehri and Iftar times in Sylhet?

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. Day 1 in Sylhet: Sehri 05:04, Iftar 17:54; day 30: Sehri 04:43, Iftar 18:10. The main table itself is unchanged — it prints the Fajr and Maghrib every fiqh starts from, and the Jafari figures are a clearly labelled adjustment to those two moments only; Asr, Dhuhr and Isha are not moved.
