About Ramadan Iftar First Day 2026

The first iftar of Ramadan 2026 is the daily fast-breaking meal at sunset. Exact time varies by city; this is approximate sunset in Riyadh.

Holidays and cultural events can begin at midnight, sundown, or a local reference time depending on the tradition. This page shows the listed start in your timezone and keeps the date easy to save.

Detailed start time guide

Iftar time is local by nature because it depends on sunset. This page tracks a reference first-day Ramadan iftar time and explains why your exact city may differ.

Local sunset matters

Iftar is the fast-breaking meal at sunset, so exact timing depends on your city, local calculation method, and moon sighting announcements.

Use this as a guide

The countdown gives a practical reference point, but it should not replace your local mosque, community calendar, or trusted prayer-time source.

Why timezone conversion helps

People often search from abroad to coordinate family calls, travel, or reminders. Seeing the reference time in your own timezone makes planning easier.
