New Delhi, March 6: As the holy month of Ramadan continues with the observance of the 16th Roza on Friday, March 6, 2026, millions of Muslims across India remain engaged in fasting, prayer and spiritual reflection. Two pivotal moments define each fasting day: Sehri, the pre-dawn meal consumed before the fast begins at daybreak, and Iftar, the evening meal at sunset that marks the breaking of the fast. These timings are crucial as they determine the religious boundaries of daily fasting.
The Significance of Sehri and Iftar
Fasting, or Sawm, is one of the Five Pillars of Islam and requires believers to abstain from food, drink and other physical needs from dawn until sunset. Sehri is considered a blessed meal that provides nourishment and strength for the day ahead. Iftar is a moment of gratitude and community, traditionally begun by eating dates and drinking water, following the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad.

Observance and Important Note
Timings may vary slightly depending on the exact locality and calculation methods followed by local mosques. Those observing Fiqh Jafria typically end Sehri a few minutes earlier and break their fast a few minutes after the listed sunset time. Devotees are advised to verify precise timings with their nearest mosque or Islamic center.
As Ramadan progresses, fasting hours gradually shift each day due to changes in sunrise and sunset times. Health experts recommend staying hydrated during non-fasting hours and consuming balanced meals during Sehri to maintain energy throughout the day.
