When does the Night of Destiny take place in 2027? Also known as Laylat al-Qadr, it marks a key moment in the month of Ramadan. Meaning, the date and time to break the fast — here’s everything you need to know.

Ramadan is the month of fasting, one of the five pillars ofIslam. It is a particularly holy period in the Muslim(Hegira) calendar. As this calendar is based on lunar cycles, there is a discrepancy with the Gregorian calendar, which explains why the dates vary from year to year.

In 2027, Ramadan is expected to begin on the evening of February 7, 2027, and run through March 8, 2027. Among the month’s highlights is the Night of Destiny (Laylat al-Qadr). It stands as one of the most important nights in the Muslim faith, commemorating the moment when the Qur’an is believed to have been revealed to the Prophet Muhammad by the Archangel Gabriel.

The Nuit du Destin arrives in the final days of the mois de Ramadan, just before the Aïd el-Fitr which marks the end of the fast. For Ramadan 2027, it is scheduled to take place on the 5 March 2027 according to provisional dates. During this holy night said to be worth more than a thousand months of ramadan, Muslims traditionally pray until dawn, and devotion can continue until the end of the mois de jeûne. The hour of iftar during this holy night is expected to be around 18h43.
