Prayer times in Bengaluru

From sunrise to Maghrib, today lasts 11 h 46 min in Bengaluru. Over the year the day here ranges from 11 h 22 min in December to 12 h 53 min in June.

This month Fajr starts as early as 4:58 am (1 October) and as late as 5:01 am (31 October); iftar-time Maghrib ranges from 5:53 pm to 6:10 pm.

The Fajr window today is 71 minutes long: it opens at dawn and closes at sunrise (6:11 am), so the last moment for Fajr is just before 6:11 am.

The afternoon prayer, Asr, begins at 4:19 pm (standard (Shafi‘i): 3:25 pm) and runs until Maghrib at 5:57 pm.

Isha follows Maghrib by 72 minutes today. The night, counted from Maghrib to Fajr, reaches its Islamic midnight at 11:28 pm, and its last third, the time many keep for Tahajjud, begins at 1:19 am.

Next Friday (23 October) Dhuhr is at 12:05 pm. Check your mosque for the time of the khutbah.

Ishraq and Duha (Chasht) can be prayed once the sun has risen a little, from about 6:31 am today, until shortly before Dhuhr. Avoid voluntary prayer in the minutes right after sunrise.

Times are shown in local time, India Standard Time, which does not change during the year.

For the Qibla, turn to 288.5° from true north (WNW). A phone compass points to magnetic north, which can differ from true north by a few degrees.

Times follow the Karachi method used by University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi, with Hanafi Asr (shadow twice the object’s length) as most mosques here pray it. Bengaluru sits about 920 m above sea level; standard tables ignore elevation, and so do we, to match local mosques. Ramadan 2027 is expected to begin on 8 February 2027, in 109 days.
