Understanding Imsak Times
Imsak is the time when fasting begins, usually marked 10-15 minutes before Fajr Adhan as a precaution. However, fasting religiously begins at the true dawn (Fajr).
History of Imsakiya
Printed Imsakiyas first appeared in Egypt during the Ottoman era. Today, digital calendars provide high accuracy based on astronomical calculations for your specific coordinates.
