Ramadan 2026: Fasting duration expected to be 12 to 13 hours in Gulf countries


 

Dubai: During Ramadan 2026, the fasting period in the Gulf Cooperation Council countries is expected to generally be between 12 and 13 hours.

According to the Meteorological Department and Astronomical Experts, the timings of Suhoor and Iftar will be close to each other in the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman, which will maintain a balance in fasting. On the contrary, the fasting period may be much longer in Northern Europe and some other regions.

During Ramadan, changes are also expected in the official working hours, educational schedules and public activities in the Gulf countries as usual, so that a balance can be maintained between worship and daily life. The relevant agencies will issue the final timings of Suhoor and Iftar before Ramadan.

According to Experts the moderate fasting period in the Gulf region provides convenience in terms of worship, daily planning, and health, while Muslims around the world prepare for this holy month according to their own regions.
