Key Notes for Chicago Muslims in Ramadan 2026:
- Sehri/Suhoor: Stop eating at Fajr time (add a safety margin of 5–10 minutes).
- Iftar: Break fast exactly at Maghrib (sunset).
- For Fiqah Jafria timings: Subtract ~10 minutes from Sehri and add ~10 minutes to Iftar.
- These are calculated approximations (ISNA method); always verify daily with local Chicago mosques, Chicago Hilal Committee, or trusted apps like IslamicFinder, AlAdhan, or Muslim Pro for any updates.
- Ramadan Mubarak! May Allah accept your fasts, prayers, and good deeds this blessed month in Chicago. Stay hydrated, eat balanced Suhoor meals, and focus on ibadah.
