:salam:

Afaik, you break your fast with Iftar (Maghrib time) So when Maghrib prayer comes that is when you break it. For example here where I live, I break my fast 21:47 something.

Hope this helped.

Allahu alam.

Yep. In here it is 20 hours (or more at some days). Some people here use Makkah times as at the north parts of the country day is even longer or there is no sunsets at all.

Assalamu Alaikum and Ramadhan Mubarak.

Please find a mosque nearest to your place by visiting this link http://mosques.muslimsinbritain.org/maps-mobile.php
You might be able to contact them for local prayer times and iftar time.

Asalaamu Alaikum, The link you found is for Scotland in the USA. The Iftaar timings in Scotland will range from 21:40 - 49 depending on where in Scotland you reside. An example is a Ramadan calender for Edinburgh:

http://www.edmosque.org/

And Glasgow:

https://www.centralmosque.co.uk/ramadhan-timetable-2017

You can easily find Masjids near you on Google and check their website for a calender or go and see them personally to get a timetable. Also try to attend your local Masjid for prayers as much as possible during this blessed month as you will be able to connect with local Muslims and find many useful and helpful resources as well as the obligatory prayers in the Masjid being a duty for men to attend and also partaking in the Taraweeh prayers which take place after the Isha prayer. This is where the Imaam recites the entire Qur'an during the month of Ramadan.

If you have any more questions then please do not hesitate to ask.

I hope this link also helps:

May Allah enable you to get closer to him during this blessed month. Ameen

When I first began fasting, I for some reason had the strange idea the fast breaks at Isha. Thank goodness someone warned me just in time, lol.

But yes it breaks at Maghrib, and if you do pop down to a nearby Masjid for iftaar or taraweeh prayers, they often will give you a copy of the prayer times for the month on request.
