This month, Muslims across the globe keep fasts every day from dawn to dusk. The purpose of Ramadan is to purify the soul and awaken the individual’s relationship with Allah (SWT).
This spiritual energy entails repentance, which means seeking forgiveness from Allah Almighty and ultimately becoming better human beings.
Fasting during Ramadan not only helps in practising patience, but it also encourages us to perform good deeds and share the suffering of those who are less fortunate. Eid-ul-Fitr is celebrated after Ramadan, which is a three-day festival marking the end of the month.
Mentioned below are the namaz timings for the month of Ramadan in Karachi.

Fiqa Hanafi and Fiqa Jafria are two schools of Islamic jurisprudence that have slightly different interpretations of Islamic law. One of the differences between these two schools is in their prayer timings.
Fiqa Hanafi follows the opinion that the time for the midday prayer (Dhuhr) starts when the sun has passed its zenith, and the length of the shadow of an object is equal to its height plus the length of its shadow at the time of noon. The time for the afternoon prayer (Asr) starts when the length of the shadow of an object is twice its height.
On the other hand, Fiqa Jafria holds the belief that the time for Dhuhr starts when the sun has passed its zenith and the length of the shadow of an object is equal to its height. The time for Asr starts when the length of the shadow of an object is equal to its height plus the length of its shadow at the time of noon.
As a result of these differences, the timing for the Dhuhr and Asr prayers for Fiqa Hanafi is slightly later than that for Fiqa Jafria. However, it is important to note that both schools of thought are valid and recognised in Islam, and the differences in their prayer timings do not affect the validity of the prayers themselves.
One of the most important aspects of Ramadan is the recitation of Duas, which are supplications and invocations to Allah. Duas can be recited at any time, but their significance increases during Ramadan because of the heightened spiritual atmosphere of the month.
The following are some of the Duas that can be recited during Ramadan:
This Dua is recited at the time of breaking the fast at sunset. The Arabic text of this Dua is
اللَّهُمَّ اِنِّى لَكَ صُمْتُ وَبِكَ امنْتُ [وَعَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ] وَعَلَى رِزْقِكَ اَفْطَرْتُ
It translates to “O Allah! I fasted for You and I believe in You and I put my trust in You and I break my fast with Your sustenance.”
This Dua is recited before the start of the fast, usually at the time of the pre-dawn meal. The Arabic text of this Dua is
“وَبِصَوْمِ غَدٍ نَّوَيْتُ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ”
It means “I intend to keep the fast tomorrow in the month of Ramadan.”
Ramadan is divided into three parts, each lasting for ten days, known as Ashra. Muslims believe that each Ashra has its unique significance and blessings, and they focus on specific Duas and prayers during each period.
Here are the Duas for each Ashra of Ramadan:
1st Ashra (first ten days of Ramadan)
This Ashra is known as the Ashra of Mercy, and Muslims focus on seeking Allah’s mercy and forgiveness during these days. The following Dua is recommended for recitation during this period:
يَا حَيُّ يَا قَيُّوْمُ بِرَحْمَتِكَ أَسْتَغِيْث
which means “O Living, O Sustaining, in Your Mercy I seek relief.”
This Ashra is known as the Ashra of Forgiveness, and Muslims focus on seeking Allah’s forgiveness and repentance during these days. The following Dua is recommended for recitation during this period:
أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ الْعَظِيمَ الَّذِي لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْْقَيُّومُ وَ أَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ
which means “I seek forgiveness from Allah, the Mighty, the Living, the Eternal, and I turn to Him in repentance.”
This Ashra is known as the Ashra of Salvation, and Muslims focus on seeking Allah’s protection and deliverance during these days. The following Dua is recommended for recitation during this period:
اَللَّهُمَّ أَجِرْنِي مِنَ النَّارِ
which means “O Allah, Save me from the hellfire (Jahannum).”
