How long is the fast in Porto-Novo?
Over the month, imsak moves earlier by 6 minutes (from 5:46 AM to 5:40 AM) and iftar moves later by 1 minute (from 7:00 PM to 7:02 PM). The longest fast falls on 8 March 2027 (13 h 11 min) and the shortest on 8 February 2027 (13 h 04 min). The average fasting day lasts 13 h 08 min, about 381 hours over the 29 days of the month.
Of the 4 cities in Benin with a Ramadan page on our site, Porto-Novo ranks 2nd for the length of the first fast. As the capital, Porto-Novo often serves as the national reference, yet across the country the first fast varies by 6 minutes, so other cities should use their own timetable.
Porto-Novo lies close to the equator (6.4965° N), where day length hardly changes over the year, so the fast stays at around 13 h 04 min for the whole month.

Eid al-Fitr 1448 in Porto-Novo
Eid al-Fitr is expected on Tuesday 9 March 2027, or one day later where Ramadan lasts 30 days. That morning the sun rises in Porto-Novo at 6:59 AM. The Eid prayer is offered once the sun has risen about a spear’s length, roughly 15 to 20 minutes after sunrise, so the earliest Eid prayers in Porto-Novo start from about 7:14 AM. Zakat al-Fitr has to be given before the prayer: our Zakat al-Fitr calculator works out the amount for your household.
About this timetable
The times are calculated for the coordinates of Porto-Novo (6.4965° N, 2.6036° E) with the Muslim World League method, the one generally used in Benin: Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon and Isha when the sun is 17° below the horizon. The start of Ramadan follows the Umm al-Qura calendar; many countries begin the month after sighting the crescent, which can move every date by a day. Mosques sometimes add a few minutes of precaution to Fajr and Maghrib.
