Iftar time in Haora is based on the astronomical sunset at 22.6°N, 88.3°E. This timing already accounts for atmospheric refraction, marking the moment the sun appears to dip below the horizon.
Local Confirmation: While our Iftar times are accurate, we recommend checking with your local mosque for any community-specific adjustments or moon sighting variations.
Today's fast in Haora lasts 11h 52m, which is approximately 60 minutes longer than at the start of Ramadan. Fasting hours are changing moderately as the season progresses.
At 22.6°N and 13m elevation in the Kolkata timezone, Haora is in the temperate zone, where seasonal daylight changes are noticeable. During Ramadan in spring, fasting hours increase by about 3 minutes each day. Your elevation adds roughly 0.0 minutes to sunset timing.
By mid-Ramadan (day 15), you'll have gained an extra 45 minutes of fasting compared to the first day. Compared to Kolkata at 22.6°N, this results in about 0 minutes of difference. These gradual daily changes are a defining feature of fasting in Haora.
Haora's sunset is approximately 3 minutes later than Kushtia, primarily due to longitude differences between the cities.
Haora's sunset is approximately 1 minute later than Rajshahi, primarily due to longitude differences between the cities.
Haora's sunset is approximately 9 minutes earlier than Jamshedpur, primarily due to longitude differences between the cities.
In Haora, sunset shifts slightly. Specifically, today's sunset occurs 1m later than yesterday.
Tomorrow's fast will be approximately 3 minutes longer than today in Haora, following the seasonal daylight pattern at 22.6° latitude. This daily progression is characteristic of Haora's subtropical latitude position, where seasonal astronomical shifts directly affect fasting duration throughout Ramadan.
Earth's atmosphere bends light, causing the sun to appear slightly higher on the horizon than its actual position. This atmospheric refraction effect is already accounted for in our calculations, giving you the precise moment when the sun appears to cross below the horizon.
At 13m above sea level, Haora's elevation affects when sunset occurs. Higher elevations see the sunset slightly later than lower areas. This elevation adjustment is included in all our calculations.
Iftar times are calculated using precise astronomical algorithms from NOAA, based on Haora's exact location (22.58°N, 88.33°E), timezone (Asia/Kolkata), and the current season to determine accurate sunset times throughout Ramadan.
Iftar in Haora today is the astronomical sunset time shown at the top of this page. Check the precise time, which is calculated for Haora's exact location (22.58°N, 88.33°E) at 13m elevation. The calculation uses the ISNA 15° method, which is widely used across South Asia.
Sehri end time in Haora marks when the fast begins in the morning. During Ramadan, this time shifts daily as sunrise moves earlier or later. The time shown on this page is calculated for Haora's exact coordinates using the ISNA 15° method, though you can compare other calculation standards on this page.
At 22.6°N, Haora experiences moderate seasonal variation in daylight, affecting fasting duration throughout Ramadan. Fasting hours in Haora vary daily throughout Ramadan as sunset and Fajr shift with the season. The times shown on this page are calculated for Haora's exact location so you can plan your fast accordingly.
Haora and Kolkata share nearly identical sunset times due to their close proximity. The primary cause is the longitude difference between the cities — roughly 4 minutes of time difference per degree of longitude. Haora is at latitude 22.58°, while Kolkata is at latitude 22.57°. Even small differences in latitude and elevation create measurable shifts in when sunset occurs.
The ISNA 15° method is most commonly used by mosques in Haora. However, the best method for you depends on your local mosque or Islamic authority. We provide multiple standards on this page: ISNA 15°, ISNA 15°, Umm al-Qura 18.5°, and Diyanet 20°. Check with your mosque to confirm which they recommend, then use that method from the options available above.
