Welcome to iftartimelahore.pk. As a dedicated platform for the residents of Lahore, we take the responsibility of providing Sehri and Iftar timings with the utmost seriousness. In the Islamic faith, the timing of the fast is a matter of profound spiritual significance. Therefore, it is our duty to be transparent about how our data is generated, its intended use, and the boundaries of our digital responsibility.

1. The Principle of Local Observation

At the heart of Islamic tradition is the principle of local sighting and communal harmony. While modern technology allows us to calculate the sun’s position with a precision of a fraction of a degree, these calculations remain secondary to the lived reality of the local community.

The Golden Rule: Regardless of the timings displayed on this website, a mobile app, or a printed calendar, the Adhan (call to prayer) from your local neighborhood mosque and the official city siren remain the final and most authoritative signals for beginning and breaking your fast.

We strongly urge all our users in Lahore—from the crowded streets of Gawalmandi to the quiet blocks of DHA—to prioritize the auditory signals of their immediate Masjid. The Muezzin (the one who calls the Adhan) is traditionally appointed to watch the horizon and follow the community’s consensus, which supersedes digital estimates.

2. Nature of the Provided Data

The information provided on iftartimelahore.pk is for informational and educational purposes only. We strive to achieve 100% mathematical accuracy using globally recognized scientific standards. However, “accurate” in the digital world is an approximation of a physical phenomenon (sunset and sunrise) that can be influenced by variables outside our control.

Users should view our timetable as a planning tool rather than an absolute religious decree. It is designed to help you prepare your meals, plan your commute on the Lahore Ring Road, and organize your family gatherings. It is not intended to replace the direct guidance of your local religious authorities or the Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee.

3. Calculation Methods & Potential Variations

Our data is processed using the University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi method for Hanafi timings and verified astronomical data for Jafria (Shia) observers. Even with these standards, slight variations can occur due to:

  • Atmospheric Refraction: Dust, humidity, and pollution levels in Lahore can slightly alter the visual appearance of the sun on the horizon.
  • Geodetic Elevation: Timings may vary by a few seconds depending on whether you are on the ground floor or a high-rise building in Gulberg.
  • Calculation Settings: Different apps and websites use varying “twilight angles” (e.g., 15°, 18°, or 20°). We have chosen the standard 18° angle to align with the majority of Lahore’s mosques, but discrepancies may still exist.

4. Limitation of Liability

By using iftartimelahore.pk, you acknowledge that you do so at your own discretion. Our team works tirelessly to cross-verify every second, especially during the critical days of the moon sighting. However, we cannot be held responsible for:

  • Any unintentional errors, omissions, or technical delays in the digital countdown or table.
  • Spiritual or physical consequences arising from a fast opened or closed based solely on our digital data in contradiction to local mosque signals.
  • Internet connectivity issues or server downtimes that may display outdated information.

5. No Religious Rulings (Fatwas)

We are researchers and residents of Lahore; we are not Muftis or authorized religious scholars. This website does not issue religious rulings (Fatwas). If you have specific questions regarding the validity of a fast in complex situations (such as medical issues, travel, or accidental eating), we strongly advise you to consult a qualified scholar at a reputable institution such as Jamia Ashrafia or Badshahi Masjid.

6. Verification & Freshness

To provide the best possible service, we monitor the Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee announcements in real-time. On the 29th of Shaban and 29th of Ramadan, our team is on standby to update our status. We recommend refreshing your browser frequently during these windows to ensure you are seeing the most recent, verified information.

7. User Responsibility

It is the user’s responsibility to ensure their device’s clock is synchronized with Pakistan Standard Time (PKT). A difference in your phone’s internal clock can lead to a misunderstanding of the countdown timer.

In conclusion, we are honored to be your companion during Ramadan 2026. Our goal is to make your spiritual journey easier, but we remain humble in the face of nature and tradition. Listen to your local Adhan, trust your community, and use our site as your helpful, high-precision guide.
