Prayer times today for your city — Fajr to Isha
This free prayer times calculator shows today’s Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha for the city you choose, the next prayer with a countdown, and a table for the next seven days or the whole month. Check namaz time at home or while travelling: pick one of over a hundred cities, use your location, or type any coordinates.
Prayer times follow the Sun, so they change daily and from place to place. The tool works them out from the Sun’s position for your latitude and longitude with the calculation method used in your country — the University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi for India and Pakistan, Umm al-Qura for Saudi Arabia, ISNA for North America, the Muslim World League for the UK and Europe, and others — and you can change the method, the Asr school and the high-latitude rule yourself.
Times are calculated — follow your local mosque or authority. Many mosques add a few minutes of precaution, and the adjustment boxes let you match their timetable exactly.
How to use the Prayer Times

Prayer Times features
15 calculation methods
Muslim World League, ISNA, Egypt, Umm al-Qura, Karachi, Tehran, Jafari, Gulf, Kuwait, Qatar, Singapore, Turkey (Diyanet), France, Russia and UAE.
Standard and Hanafi Asr
Asr when an object’s shadow equals its length plus the noon shadow (Shafi‘i, Maliki, Hanbali) or twice its length (Hanafi).
Next prayer and countdown
The current prayer’s card is marked, past ones are dimmed and the countdown updates while the page is open.
High-latitude rules
Angle-based, middle-of-the-night and one-seventh rules for places such as the UK, Scandinavia and Canada, where twilight lasts all night in summer.
Imsak, midnight and Qibla
Imsak (minutes before Fajr, editable), Islamic midnight, the start of the last third of the night and the Qibla bearing for the place.
Checked against official timetables
The automatic test compares results with MUIS Singapore’s 2025 timetable and Diyanet’s Istanbul timetable (within 2 minutes).
How prayer times are calculated
Dhuhr is solar noon, when the Sun crosses the local meridian. Sunrise and sunset (Maghrib) are when the top of the Sun touches the horizon, allowing for refraction: the Sun’s centre is 0.833° below the horizon. Fajr begins at true dawn and Isha when twilight has faded, both defined by how far the Sun is below the horizon — the twilight angle. Asr begins when a shadow reaches its length (or twice it, Hanafi) plus the shadow at noon.
The Sun’s position comes from Jean Meeus’ Astronomical Algorithms (declination and the equation of time), and the method follows the formulas published by praytimes.org. For example, in New Delhi on 19 October 2026 the Sun is 18° below the horizon at 5:05 am (Fajr, Karachi method) and Hanafi Asr begins at 4:10 pm, while standard Asr begins at 3:21 pm.
| Method | Fajr | Isha | Used in |
|---|---|---|---|
| Muslim World League | 18° | 17° | Europe, Far East |
| ISNA | 15° | 15° | USA, Canada |
| Egyptian Authority of Survey | 19.5° | 17.5° | Egypt, Africa, Levant |
| Umm al-Qura, Makkah | 18.5° | 90 min after Maghrib (120 in Ramadan) | Saudi Arabia |
| University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi | 18° | 18° | Pakistan, India, Bangladesh |
| Gulf / Qatar | 19.5° / 18° | 90 min | Gulf states |
| Kuwait | 18° | 17.5° | Kuwait |
| Singapore (MUIS) | 20° | 18° | Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia |
| Diyanet (Turkey) | 18° | 17° | Turkey, with minute offsets |
| Tehran / Jafari | 17.7° / 16° | 14° | Iran, Shia communities |
| France / Russia | 12° / 16° | 12° / 15° | France / Russia |
Prayer times in the UK and other high latitudes
North of about 48°, the Sun does not sink 18° below the horizon on summer nights, so Fajr and Isha by angle never happen. A rule then limits them to a part of the night: the angle-based rule (default) uses angle ÷ 60 of the night, one-seventh uses a seventh, and middle of the night sets both at the midpoint between sunset and sunrise. The page tells you when a rule was applied. Many UK mosques publish their own timetables, so compare with yours.
Parameters were checked on 19 October 2026 against praytimes.org, the Aladhan API method list and the authorities’ published timetables. The UAE parameters (18.2°) are those used by open-source prayer-time libraries; the authority does not publish its angles.

Prayer Times FAQ
What are the prayer times today?
They are shown at the top of this page for the selected city, in its local time, with the next prayer and a countdown. The city starts from your device’s time zone; change it if you are elsewhere.
Which calculation method should I use?
Use the one your local mosque or national authority uses. “Automatic” picks the usual method for the country — Karachi for India and Pakistan, Umm al-Qura for Saudi Arabia, ISNA for the USA and Canada, MWL for the UK and Europe.
What is the difference between Hanafi and standard Asr?
Hanafi Asr starts when a shadow is twice an object’s length plus its noon shadow; the standard (Shafi‘i, Maliki, Hanbali) time uses once the length. Hanafi Asr is usually 40–80 minutes later.
Why do the times differ from my mosque’s timetable?
Mosques often add a few minutes of precaution, use a different method or round differently. Use Adjust minutes to match them. Times are calculated — follow your local mosque or authority.
What is Imsak?
A precautionary time before Fajr when many people stop eating sehri during Ramadan. It is 10 minutes before Fajr here by default and can be changed.
How accurate is this namaz time?
For the same method the results agree within 2 minutes with the published timetables of MUIS Singapore and Diyanet Turkey. Elevation, local horizon and the authority’s own adjustments can move real times by a minute or two.
