Prayer times by city

How prayer times are calculated

Each prayer follows the sun. Fajr begins at dawn, when the sky starts to lighten; Dhuhr just after the sun passes its highest point; Asr when a shadow reaches a set length; Maghrib at sunset; and Isha when the evening twilight has gone.

Dawn and dusk have no sharp edge, so each calculation method sets the sun's angle below the horizon for Fajr and Isha. That is why methods can differ by several minutes, and why this page uses the method most widely followed in each country.

Standard or Hanafi Asr?

The Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali schools start Asr when an object's shadow equals its own length plus its shadow at noon. The Hanafi school waits until the shadow is twice the object's length, so Asr comes later, often by 40 minutes to an hour. Choose the one your mosque follows.

FAQ

How accurate are these prayer times?

They are calculated from your exact coordinates with the same astronomical formulas used by prayer apps and timetables, to the minute. Your local mosque may add a few minutes of precaution, so follow its timetable for the Iqama.

Is my location sent anywhere?

No. The times are worked out in your browser. Your location is never sent to us or anyone else, and nothing is stored apart from the method you choose.

Which calculation method should I use?

The one your local mosque or official authority uses. For each city we pick the method most widely followed in its country, and you can change it at any time.

Can I hear the Azan on my phone?

Yes. Wadiget has prayer time widgets for the Android home screen, with the Azan at each prayer, the Hijri date and a countdown to the next prayer.
