About prayer times in Abuja

Daylight in Abuja today: 11 h 53 min. That number decides how far apart Dhuhr, Asr and Maghrib sit; it peaks at 12 h 39 min on 21 June and bottoms out at 11 h 36 min on 21 December.

Fajr times in October: from 5:08 am to 5:09 am. Maghrib: from 6:08 pm to 6:21 pm. The shift is gradual, a minute every day or two.

Running late for Fajr? Today you have until 6:18 am, which is 70 minutes after it begins.

Between Asr at 3:35 pm and Maghrib at 6:11 pm lies the afternoon window. Those who pray the Hanafi Asr start at 4:32 pm.

Isha comes 66 min after Maghrib. Midnight by the Islamic count (halfway from Maghrib to Fajr) is 11:39 pm; the last third begins at 1:29 am.

Jumu'ah this week falls on 23 October; Dhuhr begins at 12:15 pm, and the sermon usually starts at or after that time. Across the month Maghrib shifts by 13 minutes.

For Ishraq, wait about 15–20 minutes after sunrise: today that is 6:38 am. Duha (Chasht) lasts from then until a little before Dhuhr at 12:15 pm.

A 346 km distance is enough to shift the times: Maghrib in Abuja is 7 min after Kano.

Abuja uses West Africa Time (UTC+01 today) all year, with no daylight saving change.

For the Qibla, turn to 64.6° from true north (ENE). A phone compass points to magnetic north, which can differ from true north by a few degrees.

Times follow the Muslim World League method used by Muslim World League. Ramadan 2027 is expected to begin on 8 February 2027, in 109 days.

Questions people ask

What time is Fajr in Abuja today?

Fajr in Abuja begins at 5:08 am today and ends at sunrise, 6:18 am.

When is Maghrib (iftar time) in Abuja?

Maghrib is at 6:11 pm today, right after sunset. In Ramadan this is iftar time.

Which calculation method is used in Nigeria?

We use Muslim World League (Muslim World League), a common choice in Nigeria. There is no single national timetable, so local mosques can differ by a few minutes: use “Match my mosque” on this page to align the times with yours.

Why is my mosque's time different?

Mosques may round differently, add a few minutes of caution, or use another Fajr/Isha angle. A difference of 1–3 minutes is normal. Use "Match my mosque" in Settings to align this page with your mosque's timetable. Iqamah (congregation) times are set by each mosque and are later than the start times shown here.

Does this page track my location?

No. The times are calculated in your browser. If you tap "Near me", your position is used once on your phone to find the closest city and is never sent to us.

Times are calculated astronomically. Small differences from your mosque are normal — follow your local mosque.
