Ramadan 2026 Iftar timing for today (February 23): Ramadan represents a time of devotion, patience, and contemplation for Muslims around the globe. During Ramadan, Muslims observe a fast from Sehri until Iftar, the evening meal that unites families and communities.

As Ramadan 2026 progresses, Muslims observing fast are very keen to know the times of sunset so that they can break their fast at the correct time. Below are the times of Iftar for major Indian cities on Saturday, February 22, 2026. The breaking of the fast for Muslims has traditionally taken place after sunset, beginning with dates and water, in accordance with the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad.

Reasons for varying iftar timings in different cities

Iftar is observed at the Maghrib prayer time, which corresponds to sunset. However, due to India's geographical span across different longitudes and regions, the time for sunset occurs earlier in the eastern regions and later in the western areas.
