Praying in Gloucester
Ramadan in Gloucester is expected around 8 February to 8 March in 2027, and the fasts stay a long way from summer length: even the last, 12h 59m, is almost six hours shorter than the longest fast of the year, 18h 46m. The shortest, 9h 30m, is on 20 December, two days before the winter solstice, so Ramadan comes during the lengthening days of late winter.
One date holds three extremes. On 21 June, also the June solstice, Fajr is at its earliest, 2:49 AM, Isha at its latest, 10:53 PM, and the fast at its longest.

How these times are calculated
- Method
- Moonsighting Committee Worldwide
- Fajr
- 18° with seasonal adjustment
- Isha
- seasonal twilight (shafaq)
- Highlighted Asr
- Hanafi (shadow twice the length)
UK times use the Moonsighting Committee Worldwide method. In summer, cities above 55 degrees north, including Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen, follow the one-seventh-of-the-night rule for Fajr and Isha because true twilight never ends there. Dhuhr is shown 5 minutes after solar noon and Maghrib 3 minutes after sunset, following the method's guidance.

Frequently asked questions
How much does the fast lengthen during Ramadan in Gloucester?
By nearly two hours between the first fast, 11h 13m, and the last, 12h 59m. The days are lengthening through February and March, so Fajr arrives a little earlier and Maghrib a little later as the month goes on. Dates are approximate until the local announcement.
Which way is the Qibla from Gloucester?
The bearing is 117 degrees clockwise from true north, so the Kaaba lies east-south-east, a little towards south-east. If you have a printed map with north at the top, a protractor gives you the same direction.
When is Isha earliest in Gloucester?
At 5:34 PM on 7 December, fifteen days before the winter solstice on 22 December. After that Isha starts a little later each evening, even though the days are still shortening.
When is the shortest fast in Gloucester?
On 20 December, at 9h 30m, two days before the winter solstice. The latest Fajr of the year, 6:35 AM, follows on 1 January, so the dawn prayer keeps getting later after the fast has bottomed out.
