Praying in New York City
Ramadan 2027 is expected to run from around 8 February to around 8 March, and in New York City that means fasts of about 11h 40m at the start and about 12h 51m at the end. Both sit much nearer the 10h 37m of the shortest winter day than the 16h 46m of a June one.
Daylight saving time begins on 14 March, just after the month is expected to end, so the whole of Ramadan is timed on standard time. The other change comes on 7 November, the morning after Fajr reaches its latest, 6:15 AM on 6 November, when the clocks go back and dawn jumps an hour earlier.

Frequently asked questions
How does a Ramadan fast in New York City compare with a summer fast?
Ramadan 2027 fasts of about 11h 40m to 12h 51m are well short of June's 16h 46m on the 20th, more than five hours at the start. Even the last day of the month is nearly four hours under the longest summer fast.
How many mosques are there near New York City?
According to OpenStreetMap, 74 mosques lie within 15 km of the city centre. Map volunteers keep that data up to date, but small prayer rooms often go missing. A call or a look at the masjid's own timetable is the surest way to find congregation times.
Why is Fajr latest on 6 November in New York City?
Sunrise keeps getting later through autumn, and daylight saving time is still in force until 7 November. Fajr is 6:15 AM that morning, then drops an hour when the clocks change, which is why the latest dawn prayer is in early November and not midwinter.
What is the shortest fast of the year in New York City?
The shortest Fajr-to-Maghrib day is 10h 37m on 20 December. At the other end, the earliest Fajr, 3:45 AM on 11 June, comes in the same season as the longest fast, 16h 46m on 20 June.
