Key Information for Belfast

  • Longer Fasting Hours: Due to its northern latitude, the fasting period in Belfast is longer compared to many other UK cities. On the first day, fasting lasts approximately 11 hours and 40 minutes, extending to about 13 hours and 44 minutes by the last day.
  • Community Hub: For official announcements, Taraweeh prayer schedules, and community Iftars, connect with the Belfast Islamic Centre or local mosques like the Donegall Pass Mosque.
  • Daylight Saving: Be mindful that the UK switches to British Summer Time (BST) on 29 March 2026. This occurs after Ramadan (projected to end on 19 March), so it will not affect the fasting times for 2026.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1: When should I have Suhoor?

Your pre-dawn meal must be finished before the Fajr time begins, which is when the fast starts.

Q2: What is the exact Iftar time?

You may break your fast as soon as the Maghrib (sunset) time arrives. This time is highlighted in the table above for each day.

Q3: Why are Belfast’s fasting times longer?

Prayer times are based on the sun’s angle. Belfast’s more northern location results in later sunsets and earlier dawns in late winter/early spring compared to southern UK cities.

Q4: When is Eid al-Fitr expected?

Eid al-Fitr is projected for Friday, 20 March 2026, subject to the official sighting of the Shawwal moon.

We wish the Muslim community in Belfast a peaceful, blessed, and spiritually uplifting Ramadan. Ramadan Mubarak!

Note: For the most precise congregational prayer times and official confirmations, please follow the guidance of your local Belfast mosque.
