Riyadh Ramadan Fasting Guide
Daily fasting begins at the break of dawn with the Fajr Adhan and concludes at sunset with the Maghrib Adhan. It is sunnah to take Suhoor before Fajr and break fast promptly upon sunset. Follow the Hijri date to track the lunar calendar during the holy month.
Those fasting in Riyadh need an accurate timetable for Suhoor and Iftar throughout Ramadan. This page provides a complete Ramadan schedule, updated daily using the city's astronomical data.
The night flagged above reflects one reference source's best estimate for Laylat al-Qadr, but scholars differ on its exact date — many hold that it falls on one of the odd-numbered nights in Ramadan's last ten (the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, or 29th). It's recommended to devote extra worship to all of these nights, not just the one marked here.
How long until Ramadan in Riyadh?
Use the live timer for a quick answer, then check the expected date in both calendars. Ramadan is the ninth Hijri month. Its Gregorian date moves from year to year because the Hijri calendar follows lunar months. A calculated date helps with planning, while the official Saudi announcement determines when fasting begins.
Using the Riyadh Suhoor and Iftar timetable
Each row below pairs a Gregorian date with its Ramadan day. The Fajr column marks the beginning of the daily fast, and the Maghrib column marks Iftar. These times are calculated for Riyadh, so do not reuse them for another city. Use the calendar download for reminders and check the daily prayer schedule when arranging work, travel or family meals.
What time does the Ramadan countdown end?
This timer reaches zero at 00:00 at the start of the displayed Riyadh calendar date. That is a date countdown, not the time to begin fasting. The first fast begins at Fajr; the Islamic night associated with that day begins after sunset on the preceding evening. Use the timetable for the actual Fajr and Maghrib times.
Planning the final nights and Eid
Ramadan has 29 or 30 days, depending on the established month. Keep the final nights flexible rather than assuming a fixed Eid date. You can follow the Eid al-Fitr countdown for 1 Shawwal and use the Hijri-date converter to check travel dates. School Eid breaks follow the academic calendar and do not necessarily begin on Eid itself.
