Vancouver Ramadan Calendar 2027 — Sehri & Iftar Times

For Vancouver, the table below prints every fasting day of Ramadan 1448 AH — 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. Ramadan is expected to begin on Monday 8 February 2027 in Canada, subject to the sighting of the new moon, and to end with Eid al-Fitr around 9–10 March 2027. The shape of the month in Vancouver: the fast begins at 11 hours 17 minutes on day 1 (Fajr 07:04, Maghrib 18:21) Fajr drifts 53 minutes earlier and Maghrib 47 minutes earlier between the two ends of the table. The calculation point is Vancouver (49.28, -123.12) and the method is Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) (America/Vancouver) — treat the rows as exact for Vancouver and as a close guide elsewhere in Canada.

Reading a row in Vancouver: Sehri ends at the Fajr figure — 07:04 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. Between those two times nothing passes the lips; the fast is then broken at Iftar, classically with dates and water before the prayer. The abstinence in Vancouver lasts 11 hours 17 minutes at the month's opening and 12 hours 57 minutes at its close. The drift is the reason the table exists row by row: Fajr moves 53 minutes earlier in total and Maghrib 47 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 Vancouver is the 19:04 Iftar of Ramadan day 26's row, and its fast follows at Fajr 06:16.

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

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 Vancouver: all four schools fast from the same dawn to the same sunset. Asr is the difference: 15:53 on day 1 for Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali (shadow equal to length), 16:33 for Hanafi (shadow twice the length), a gap of 40 minutes that widens or narrows only slightly by day 30 (16:28 against 17:16, 48 minutes). 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 Vancouver

For Jafari readers in Vancouver, the live page carries a separate Jafari tab built from this same table. In numbers for Vancouver: Sehri moves from 07:04 to 06:54 and Iftar from 18:21 to 18:33 on the first day, drifting with the table to 06:01 and 19:20 by the last. 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.

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 Vancouver: the first is said quietly with the intention before Fajr (07:04 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 Vancouver calendar was calculated: calculation method Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), calculation point Vancouver (America/Vancouver). Fajr and Isha rest on the method's sun angles; Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr and Maghrib follow the sun's actual position over Vancouver. 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.

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 Canada, the final row (Tue, 9 Mar 2027, Iftar 19:08 in Vancouver) simply does not apply, and Iftar on the 29th day is followed by the night of Eid instead. If Canada's start is announced a day later than 8 February 2027, the whole table shifts by one row — the times move with the dates. Method differences show up at the edges of the day — the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) Fajr of 07:04 and Isha of 19:50 on day 1 are convention, while Dhuhr (13:27), Asr and Maghrib are the sun itself, which is why rival tables agree on Iftar and quarrel politely over Sehri.

Finally, a practical word for people whose days are long or whose work is physical: fasts of 11 hours 17 minutes at the start becoming 12 hours 57 minutes by the end. Where health, medication, pregnancy or travel enters the picture, the ruling may change entirely. 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 fasting, your prayers and your charity throughout the month.

Frequently asked questions

When does Ramadan 2027 start in Vancouver?

Ramadan 1448 AH is expected to begin on Monday 8 February 2027 in Vancouver, Canada, subject to the sighting of the new moon and the official announcement followed in Canada. Should the start be announced a day later, day 1's times (07:04 Fajr, 18:21 Maghrib in Vancouver) would simply attach to the following Gregorian date.

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

On day 1 (Mon, 8 Feb 2027, 1 Ramaḍān 1448), Sehri ends at Fajr, 07:04 on Mon, 8 Feb 2027 — and that first fast ends at Maghrib 18:21. From that Fajr, nothing is eaten or drunk until Iftar — a fast of 11 hours 17 minutes. By the last day of the table Fajr has moved to 06:11 and Maghrib to 19:08, so check the row for each day rather than reusing the day-1 times.

Which calculation method does the Vancouver Ramadan calendar use?

The Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) convention — the method customary for Vancouver — produces every time in this table for Vancouver, in the America/Vancouver zone. Fajr gives the Sehri end time and Maghrib gives Iftar; the method's sun angles are what fix Fajr at 07:04 and Isha at 19:50 on day 1, while Dhuhr (13:27) 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 Vancouver, in the madhab you select, can be downloaded from the live version of this page.

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

Only Asr changes with the madhab in Vancouver; Fajr (Sehri) and Maghrib (Iftar) are identical for everyone. On day 1 the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali Asr is 15:53, while the Hanafi Asr is 16:33 — 40 minutes later. 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. 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.

What is the longest fast in Vancouver during Ramadan 2027?

Day 30 is the longest in Vancouver: 12 hours 57 minutes between Fajr 06:11 and Maghrib 19:08. The shortest is day 1 at 11 hours 17 minutes, and day 1 runs 11 hours 17 minutes against day 30's 12 hours 57 minutes. If Ramadan completes 30 days where you are, the final evening's Maghrib is followed by the night of Eid; if the new moon is sighted a day earlier, Eid falls a day sooner and the final row is not used.

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

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 Vancouver: Sehri 06:54, Iftar 18:33; day 30: Sehri 06:01, Iftar 19:20. Treat the Jafari times as the precautionary practice they are labelled as, and follow your own marja's guidance where it differs.
