Ramadan in Afghanistan

Ramadan (ماه مبارک رمضان) is the holiest month in Islam, during which Muslims fast from pre-dawn (Sehri/Suhoor) to sunset (Iftar) each day. In Afghanistan, Ramadan is observed with great devotion across all regions. This tool provides the complete Sehri and Iftar timetable for all major Afghan cities for Ramadan 1446 AH (2025) and Ramadan 1447 AH (2026).

Sehri (also called Suhoor) ends at Fajr time — this tool uses Fajr as the Sehri cutoff. Iftar begins at Maghrib (sunset). A safety margin of 10 minutes before Fajr is commonly recommended for Sehri to account for local time variations; this tool displays the calculated Fajr time as the Sehri deadline.

Frequently Asked Questions

Sehri (also called Suhoor in Arabic) is the pre-dawn meal eaten before the Fajr prayer, after which fasting begins. Iftar is the meal that breaks the fast at sunset (Maghrib time). During Ramadan, Muslims abstain from food, drink, and other physical needs from Sehri (Fajr) to Iftar (Maghrib) each day.

This tool uses astronomical prayer time calculations based on the geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) of each Afghan city. Fajr is calculated using the angle method — in this tool, Fajr uses 18 degrees below the horizon (Umm al-Qura method approximation). Maghrib is at sunset. Times are calculated in local Afghanistan Standard Time (UTC+4:30).

Ramadan 1446 AH is expected to begin around 1 March 2025 in Kabul and across Afghanistan. The exact date depends on moon sighting confirmation by the Ministry of Hajj and Religious Affairs. Select 1446 AH in the Year dropdown above to view the complete schedule for Kabul or any other Afghan city.

Prayer times are based on the position of the sun relative to each location's latitude and longitude.
