Q: Okay Im pretty sure the prayer times are the same, but howcome when im comparing different websites like sunni websites and shia websites for sunrise/sunset and prayer times in Seattle area, they are all different? Do shias and sunnis break their fast and pray at different times? I wasnt aware of this, maybe somethings wrong with the websites, because i noticed one sunni website says a different time from the other?? Do shias and sunnis actually pray and practice fasting differently? Please help. Im confused. If anyone knows a good and accurate sunni website with times for iftaar and prayers for the US, plz post. Ramadan Karim to everyone! Thank you Zahra, Proactive, FTL, and Ninja Ducky is that you? The flower. Thank you guys, that helps alot. As for the people who are delibrately insulting and offending shias, I did not post this question for that!!! PLEASE STOP INSULTING SHIA. We are all brothers. Salaam Simran. Thank you very much sister. lol. yeah some people tell me that too. Its actually pretty common in Afghanistan.
A: the Shia Muslims break their fast a few minutes later than the Sunni Muslims, its always been like that, same thing with the Maghrib prayer...if u think about its actually better to extend ur fast just a few more minutes cause if you broke ur fast a few minutes earlier than when ur suppose to break it, ur whole day's worth of fasting is gone and does not count and you must re-fast that day Ramadan Kareem to you as well sister
