Ramadan timetable 2027 in Tashkent: calculated times
In Tashkent, the Ramadan timetable 2027 consists of the imsak time, the limit for the last meal before dawn, and the iftar time, the moment the fast is broken at sunset. The fast lasts 12 h 04 on the first day and 13 h 16 on the twenty-ninth.
Ramadan 2027 is expected to begin in Tashkent on Monday 8 February, in the last weeks of the Central Asian winter. On the first day, suhur must end by 05:44 and the fast breaks at 17:48, for a total of 12 hours 4 minutes.

A green, level city beneath the Tian Shan
Tashkent lies on a broad plain at about 450 metres, near the foothills of the western Tian Shan mountains, whose snowy ridges are sometimes visible on clear days from eastern districts. The city is laid out on a grid of wide avenues lined with plane trees and poplars, crossed by irrigation channels such as the Anhor canal, and divided between old quarters around Chorsu and broad modern districts to the south and west.
The month starts in deep winter and ends at the edge of spring, and the daily timetable stretches a great deal in between. On the opening Monday imsak is at 05:44 and evening food at 17:48, a fast of 12 h 04. By the last Monday figures are 05:06 and 18:21, and a day lasts 13 h 16.
The Metro as shelter from the cold
A subway known for stations decorated with marble, mosaics and chandeliers, is the quickest way across town and a warm refuge on freezing days. Before sunset it fills with workers heading home, so people who want to join a family table or prayer at 17:48 on day one leave early.
Chorsu Bazaar and the old town
The great domed hall of Chorsu Bazaar, one of the best-known markets in Central Asia, sits at the edge of the old town. Under its roof, sellers pile up dried apricots, raisins, walnuts, spices, rounds of bread and fresh meat, and in weeks of fasting the aisles are packed with families shopping for the evening. Those wanting the best choice go in the morning, when the stalls are full and the passages quiet.
The Hazrati Imam complex and the Minor Mosque
The Hazrati Imam complex, with its historic mosque, madrasas and Tilla Sheikh Mosque, is a spiritual centre of the old town, while the white Minor Mosque beside the Anhor canal is a modern landmark drawing large crowds in the evening. Both are easy to reach by Metro and on foot from the central avenues.
Tea houses, noodles and warm bread
Hospitality here is built around tea and bread, and both hold the evening together. Green tea is poured first, then come hot soups, lagman noodles, manti dumplings and golden samsa, with plov for the largest gatherings. A round of freshly baked non is always on the table, and dried apricots and walnuts are served for dessert.
The cold shapes everyday life. Winter nights can drop below freezing, fog sometimes hangs over the plain, and snow may fall in February before melting in March. By the end of the month the air is softer, trees begin to bud, and evenings feel noticeably lighter.
Dressing for winter and planning for change
Because days lengthen fast, residents and visitors benefit from a flexible routine:
- Wear a hat and gloves for early walks to mosque
- Reset the pre-dawn alarm at least once a week
- Start with warm tea and soup at the evening meal
- Eat bread, eggs and nuts before dawn for lasting energy
- Check official calendars if your mosque publishes its own
Night prayers and the lengthening evenings
On the first Monday isha is at 19:16, and by last Monday it has moved to 19:48, so the night prayers finish later as March approaches. Friday 5 March is expected to bring a 27th-night vigil, when many families remain at the mosque until late.
Announcements and Eid
The opening day is expected on Monday 8 February, with the first night prayers on Sunday 7 February, but the announcement depends on the crescent. The festivities ending the month, called Hayit locally, are projected for Tuesday 9 March, or Wednesday 10 March if Ramadan lasts thirty days.
How often will the early alarm need changing?
About once a week. Imsak falls at 05:44 on day 1, 05:27 on day 15 and 05:06 on day 29, so the meal moves earlier by roughly seventeen to twenty minutes every fortnight.
Why do the evening hours shift so quickly here?
Late winter is when daylight grows fastest in the northern hemisphere, and its latitude amplifies this. Sunset moves from 17:48 to 18:21 across the month, and the longer evenings are one of the pleasures of the second half.
What should be eaten at dawn to stay satisfied until evening?
Slow-release foods work best: bread with eggs, cheese or nuts, a bowl of oatmeal or leftover rice, plus tea and water. Salty or very sweet food at dawn tends to bring on thirst later in the day.
