* Ramadan lasts 29 or 30 days. The 30th fast is kept only if the Shawwal moon is not sighted on the evening of the 29th; otherwise Eid al-Fitr is the next day.

Times are local time in Nairobi (Africa/Nairobi). Sehri ends when Fajr begins and Iftar is at sunset (Maghrib). Fast length is counted from Fajr to Maghrib. Dates follow the Umm al-Qura calendar, and local moon sighting may move them by a day.

How the times change through Ramadan in Nairobi

Between the first and the 29th fast, Sehri in Nairobi stays about the same (5:31 AM to 5:31 AM), and Iftar moves about 5 minutes earlier (6:52 PM to 6:47 PM). As a result the fast grows shorter by about 5 minutes, from 13h 21m to 13h 16m.

The Muslim World League angles are a common default in East Africa, where the Shafi school is the majority practice along the coast. If your mosque follows a different convention, choose it above and the timetable updates. Sehri and Iftar don't depend on the Asr setting, so only the method changes these times.

For breaking the fast, see the dua for breaking the fast and the other Ramadan duas. Daily prayer times for the rest of the year are on the prayer times page for Nairobi, and the Ramadan guide explains the month.

Ramadan in Nairobi: common questions

When does Sehri end in Nairobi on the first day of Ramadan 2027?

If Ramadan begins on Monday 8 February 2027, Sehri in Nairobi ends at 5:31 AM, when Fajr begins, and the fast is opened at Iftar at 6:52 PM. These times use the Muslim World League method, which is the usual choice in Kenya.

How long is the fast in Nairobi during Ramadan 2027?

From Fajr to Maghrib, the first fast lasts about 13h 21m and the 29th about 13h 16m. The longest fast of the month is about 13h 21m and the shortest about 13h 16m.

Why does my mosque in Nairobi show an earlier Sehri time?

Many mosques and printed calendars stop Sehri a few minutes before Fajr as a precaution (ihtiyat), so nobody eats into the time of the fast by mistake. This timetable shows the start of Fajr itself, and you can choose a 5 or 10 minute margin above the table. Mosques may also use a different calculation method.

When will Ramadan 2027 start in Nairobi?

On the Umm al-Qura calendar, Ramadan 1448 begins on Monday 8 February 2027, with the first Sehri in Nairobi ending at 5:31 AM. The actual start in Kenya depends on moon sighting and local announcements and may differ by a day; if it does, tick "Ramadan started a day later here" and the Nairobi timetable moves by one day.
