ISLAMABAD - The longest and shortest fasting times around the globe.

The longest fast will be for 20 hours and 45 minutes in Russia’s Murmansk while the shortest will be in Argentina’s Ushuaia clocking in at 11 hours.

With the holy month of Ramazan right around the corner, members of the Muslim faith will practice tolerance through fasting.Prayer timings in major cities of these countries were used to calculate the intervals between *Fajr* (preceding sunrise) and *Maghrib* (marking sunset) on the expected first day of Ramazan.

For example, Russia’s Murmansk only has 3 hours of darkness, before the sun rises again at 1:41 am.
