How these times are calculated
Prayer times in Makkah are computed from the city's exact coordinates (21.4266°, 39.8256°) using astronomical formulas for the sun's position, following the Umm al-Qura University, Makkah convention — the standard used in Saudi Arabia. Used in Saudi Arabia and the Arabian Peninsula.
- Fajr begins when the sun is 18.5° below the horizon (Dawn prayer, before sunrise).
- Dhuhr starts a minute after solar noon, when the sun passes its highest point.
- Asr is calculated with the standard (shadow equal to object length) convention.
- Maghrib begins at sunset.
- Isha begins 90 minutes after Maghrib (Umm al-Qura convention).
Prayer times are calculated astronomically. Always confirm with your local mosque, which may apply an extra minute or two as a precaution.
