As iftar approaches, the imsakiyah timetable typically guides Muslims to know when to break the fast and to observe prayer times during Ramadan. Each district has its own imsakiyah schedule, including Central Jakarta. Kompas.com provides information on imsak, buka puasa, and prayer times daily through the end of Ramadan. Here is the buka puasa and prayer times for those in Central Jakarta: 16 Ramadan 1447 AH, Friday, Central Jakarta. The government, through the Ministry of Religious Affairs, set the start of fasting on 1 Ramadan 1447 AH to fall on Thursday, 19 February 2026. The decision was made after an Isbat session held at the Kemenag office in Jakarta on Tuesday afternoon (17 February 2026), chaired by the Minister of Religious Affairs Nasaruddin Umar. The determination was made because the hilal (new moon) was not observed on Tuesday, in line with the Hisab Rukyat Team at Kemenag, which says the position of the hilal did not meet the visibility criteria of MABIMS. This difference does not invalidate worship, and all Muslims are urged to show mutual respect. The Isbat session involved various Islamic organisations, falak experts, and astronomical bodies, and was conducted with an integrated method of hisab and rukyatul hilal to maintain uniformity while respecting differences in methods growing in society.
