Ramadan 1448
Ramadan 2027 in Pakistan
The expected start date, who decides it, and first-day sehri and iftar times across 9 cities.
How Pakistan decides
Pakistan's religious authority looks for the physical new moon each month rather than relying on a fixed calculation.
The Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee sights the moon locally each month and usually announces a day after Saudi Arabia. Pakistan started Ramadan March 2, 2025 and February 19, 2026, both one day later than Saudi Arabia.
