When is Laylatul Qadr 2027?

Laylatul Qadr, the Night of Decree, is better than a thousand months (Qur'an 97:3). The Prophet ﷺ told us to seek it in the odd nights of the last ten of Ramadan. In 2027 these are expected on the evenings of:

Night 21: Saturday 27 February
Night 23: Monday 1 March
Night 25: Wednesday 3 March
Night 27: Friday 5 March
Night 29: Sunday 7 March

With My 10 Nights you give on every one of the last ten nights automatically, so your charity is there on Laylatul Qadr, whichever night it is.

How long are the fasts in the UK?

In London the first fast is about 11 hours 28 minutes, from Fajr at 5:34am to Maghrib at 5:02pm. The last is about 13 hours 10 minutes, from 4:42am to 5:52pm. Times differ by a few minutes from city to city. See the Ramadan 2027 timetable for your city, with Sehri and Iftar for every day.
