Home / Ramadan Zone / Multi-City Family Calendar
Ramadan has a way of scattering a family across a map. One sibling is studying in London, parents are back home in Karachi, an uncle is working in Dubai and cousins have settled in Toronto — yet everyone still wants to know the same thing at the same moment: what time do you break your fast today? Phone calls at maghrib rarely line up, because maghrib itself refuses to line up.
This family calendar puts up to six cities side by side in a single 30-day table, with the Sehri and Iftar time for every city on every day of Ramadan 2027. Pick the cities where your family actually lives, scan across a row to see the whole family's day at a glance, and download the result as a tidy PDF that can travel through the family group chat once and answer questions all month.
When each person keeps their own timetable, small misunderstandings creep in. A time quoted without a city attached gets repeated as if it applied to everyone, and someone inevitably eats ten minutes late — or, worse, a few minutes early. A combined table removes the ambiguity: the city name sits directly above its own times, in its own time zone, for the whole month.
It also makes planning kinder. You can see at a glance that iftar in one home happens while another home is still mid-afternoon, so you stop calling during their busiest cooking hour. Video iftars become easy to schedule too — pick the latest maghrib in the family and everyone can join a call as the last fast opens.
Start with your own city, then add the places where parents, siblings and close relatives will spend Ramadan. You can include up to six cities from the 144 covered by ZakatSuite, from Makkah and Madinah to small diaspora towns. The table rebuilds instantly, showing Sehri (the end of the pre-dawn meal, at Fajr) and Iftar (Maghrib) for each city, day by day from 8 February to 9 March 2027.
Choose the madhab view that your household follows before downloading. All four schools share identical Sehri and Iftar times — the madhab choice affects the Asr time shown in the full city calendars, not the two times in this table — while the Jafari view applies the widely practised precaution of ending Sehri ten minutes before Fajr and opening the fast twelve minutes after Maghrib.
The gaps between cities can be startling. A family split between South Asia and North America may see iftar separated by ten hours or more, and northern cities fast noticeably longer as the month moves toward March. None of this is an error: each city's times are calculated for its own coordinates with the calculation method customary in its country, and are shown in that city's local time.
Times can still vary by a minute or so within a large city, and timetables are always subject to the sighting of the moon at the start and end of the month. Treat this table as the family's shared plan, and let each household follow its local mosque for the final word on any given evening.
Download the PDF and send it once, early — ideally in the week before Ramadan begins. Pin it in the family chat, print a copy for grandparents who prefer paper, and agree that this is the table everyone quotes from. One shared document, sent once, quietly prevents thirty days of confused messages asking what time iftar is in somebody else's country.
Up to six cities at once, chosen from all 144 cities covered by the ZakatSuite Ramadan 2027 timetables. Six covers most families comfortably — home city, parents, and the main places siblings have settled.
Each column shows that city's own local time, exactly as a resident there would read it. That is what makes the table safe to share: nobody has to convert anything, and nobody can mistake another city's maghrib for their own.
No. Hanafi, Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali timetables all end Sehri at Fajr and open the fast at Maghrib. The schools differ only on the Asr prayer time. The Jafari view is the exception, applying a precaution of Fajr minus ten minutes for Sehri and Maghrib plus twelve minutes for Iftar.
Moon sighting can differ between countries, so one branch of the family may begin — and celebrate Eid — a day apart from another. The dates in this table follow the expected start of Monday 8 February 2027; follow your local announcement and simply shift by a day if your country does.
Yes. The PDF download is a single landscape A4 sheet designed for printing and sharing, with Laylatul Qadr nights marked so the whole family can plan the last ten nights together.
