Saudi iftar times naturally vary to the rest of the world, however one thing global iftar timings share in common is the fact that the time to break your fast gets later minute by minute.
Iftar signifies the time when families, friends, and loved ones gather to break their fast after running on hours of no food or drink.
Symbolising a sense of devotion and thankfulness for what we have, Ramadan is expected to begin on Thursday March 23 with iftar taking place at sunset during the call of Maghrib prayer.
