Suhoor ends at dawn (Fajr); the fast is broken at sunset (Maghrib).

How Sehri and Iftar times are found

During Ramadan, the daily fast begins at Suhoor — the pre-dawn meal that must end before Fajr — and is broken at Iftar, the moment of sunset marked by Maghrib. Both depend on the position of the sun at your location, which is why they shift by a minute or two each day and vary from city to city. This tool fetches today’s accurate Fajr and Maghrib times for the city you enter, so you know exactly when to stop eating and when to break your fast.

Enter your city and country, choose the calculation method your community follows, and the tool retrieves the timings from a trusted prayer-times service. It shows Sehri (the Fajr time) and Iftar (the Maghrib time) prominently, along with the full set of daily prayer times for context. Because the data is requested live, you always see up-to-date figures for the current day.

Calculation methods differ mainly in the sun angles used for dawn and dusk, which can move Sehri by a few minutes. If you are unsure, pick the method used by your local mosque, and consider stopping Suhoor a couple of minutes early as a precaution. For the start of Ramadan itself, pair this with the Ramadan countdown.

Frequently asked questions

How are Sehri and Iftar times calculated?

Sehri (Suhoor) ends at the start of Fajr (dawn), and Iftar begins at Maghrib (sunset). Times are computed from your city’s coordinates and the sun’s position using a standard calculation method, fetched from a reliable prayer-times service.

Why do calculation methods differ?

Methods such as ISNA, Muslim World League and Umm al-Qura use slightly different sun-angle conventions for Fajr and Isha, which can change Sehri by a few minutes. Choose the method your local mosque follows.

Should I add a precaution margin?

Many people stop eating a few minutes before the calculated Fajr and break fast right at Maghrib. Following your local mosque’s timetable is the safest approach.

Does it work offline?

No — it fetches the latest times for your city when you search. Once shown, you can note them down. For prayer directions, use our Qibla finder.
