About prayer times in Soweto
Soweto gets 12 h 52 min of daylight today, between sunrise and Maghrib. Around 21 December that grows to 13 h 47 min, and around 21 June it falls to 10 h 29 min.
The month's extremes in Soweto: earliest Fajr 3:58 am (31 October), latest Fajr 4:31 am (1 October), earliest Maghrib 6:09 pm, latest Maghrib 6:25 pm.
Fajr ends at sunrise. Today that gives 80 minutes, from 4:07 am to 5:27 am.
Asr in Soweto today: 3:24 pm, or 4:29 pm by the Hanafi method.
Isha comes 76 min after Maghrib. Midnight by the Islamic count (halfway from Maghrib to Fajr) is 11:12 pm; the last third begins at 12:50 am.
From the first to the last day of October, Fajr changes by 33 minutes and Maghrib by 16. Friday prayer: 23 October, Dhuhr 11:54 am.
Sunrise is at 5:27 am. The voluntary Duha prayer starts around 5:47 am and ends shortly before Dhuhr.
Compared with Johannesburg (20 km), the sun sets 1 min later here, so iftar and Maghrib move by the same amount.
All times are local Soweto time (South Africa Standard Time). The offset from UTC stays the same all year.
The Qibla from Soweto is 14.8° from true north (NNE), and the Kaaba is 5,458 km away.
Times follow the Muslim World League method used by Muslim World League. Soweto sits about 1632 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.

Questions people ask
What time is Fajr in Soweto today?

Which calculation method is used in South Africa?
We use Muslim World League (Muslim World League), a common choice in South Africa. 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.
