If your mosque starts on another day
Mosques in South Africa that wait for a local moon sighting, or follow an announcement made abroad, can start a day earlier or later. Starting on Sun 7 February 2027, that first suhoor in Cape Town ends at 04:41 and iftar is at 19:50. Starting on Tue 9 February 2027, begin at the second row; a 30-day month ends on Tue 9 March 2027, the Eid row. In Sahaar, Settings › Prayer time calculation › Hijri date adjustment moves the Hijri date up to two days either way.
A suhoor alarm that rings
Sahaar’s Fajr alarm is free, rings through silent mode and Focus, and can ring 15 to 60 minutes before Fajr. Three days before Ramadan the app offers “Move to Suhoor”: 45 minutes before Fajr, 03:57 in Cape Town on 8 February. Then “Try your alarm now” rings a test alarm one minute later, to check it on silent with the screen locked.
