Asalam-o-Alaikum! Ramadan 2026 (1447 AH) is in full swing across Pakistan, with the holy month starting on Thursday, February 19, 2026, following the Ruet-e-Hilal Committee's official moon sighting announcement on February 18. This means the first fast was observed on Feb 19, and the month will run approximately 29-30 days, ending around mid-March (exact Eid date depends on Shawwal moon sighting).
Since you're in Hazro City, Punjab (near Attock/Rawalpindi), your local timings will be very close to Rawalpindi or Islamabad figures — typically Sehri around 5:10-5:15 AM and Iftar around 6:05-6:07 PM in early March. Timings vary slightly by city due to longitude/latitude differences, so here's a handy overview for major cities across Pakistan, based on reliable sources like Hamariweb, UrduPoint, Daily Pakistan, and local Ruet-aligned calculations (Fiqh Hanafi standard, as widely followed).
These are approximate/current timings for mid-Ramadan (around March 3, 2026, ~13-14 Ramadan). Fasting hours are shortening gradually as spring approaches (from ~12.5-13 hours early on to slightly longer later). Always double-check your local masjid announcement or Ruet updates, as minor adjustments can occur.

- Hazro City / Attock Area Tip: Aligns almost exactly with Rawalpindi/Islamabad (Sehri ~5:10-5:12 AM, Iftar ~6:06-6:07 PM). Northern Punjab cities tend to have slightly earlier times than southern ones.
- Fasting Hours Trend: In early Ramadan (Feb 19-25), fasts were shorter (~12 hrs 30-40 mins in Punjab). By late March, they extend a bit due to seasonal change.
- Fiqh Jafria (Shia) Note: Suhoor often 10 mins later, Iftar 10 mins earlier — check local Shia sources if applicable.
