How the countdown works
- Before Ramadan it counts down to the start of 1 Ramadan in your city's time zone (Umm al-Qura calendar).
- During Ramadan it switches automatically: to iftar (Maghrib) during the day and to the end of suhoor (Fajr) at night.
- Prayer times use each city's official method (Umm al-Qura for Saudi Arabia, Egyptian authority for Egypt, and so on).
