About Global Prayer Times

What is Global Prayer Times?

Global Prayer Times provides accurate daily prayer times for Muslim communities in 24 countries — the United States, Canada, Australia, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Nigeria, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Morocco, Qatar, Jordan, Kuwait, Tunisia, Palestine, South Africa, and Singapore. We cover 280+ cities and 590+ mosques, with detailed information about each city's Muslim community and mosques.

Times are calculated using the officially recognised method for each region, based on established Islamic scholarly standards:

• North America (US, Canada): ISNA — Islamic Society of North America (15°/15°)
• South Asia (Pakistan, Bangladesh, India): Karachi — University of Islamic Sciences (18°/18°, Hanafi Asr)
• Gulf (UAE): Dubai IACAD — Islamic Affairs & Charitable Activities Dept (18.2°/18.2°)
• Saudi Arabia: Umm al-Qura — Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah (18.5°, Isha fixed 90 min)
• Turkey: Diyanet — Diyanet İşleri Başkanlığı (18°/17°, Hanafi Asr)
• Egypt: Egyptian General Authority of Survey (19.5°/17.5°)
• UK & Ireland: Moonsighting Committee Worldwide (15°/15°)
• Indonesia & Malaysia: Ministry of Religious Affairs, Indonesia (20°/18°)
• France: UOIF — Union of Islamic Organisations of France (12°/12°)
• Australia, Nigeria, South Africa & others: Muslim World League (18°/17°)

The angles above refer to the sun's depression below the horizon at which Fajr begins (dawn) and Isha begins (night). See our full Calculation Methods reference guide for detailed explanations, scholarly sources, and high-latitude adjustment rules.

Who runs Global Prayer Times?

Global Prayer Times is created and maintained by Elite Digital AI Solutions Ltd. It is a free, independent service — not affiliated with any mosque, government body, or commercial platform.

This website is run as a free sadaqah jariyah (صدقة جارية — perpetual charity) for Muslims worldwide. In Islamic jurisprudence, sadaqah jariyah refers to a charitable act whose spiritual benefit continues indefinitely; building and maintaining a free, beneficial service for Muslims is widely considered to qualify. There are no ads, no paywalls, and no account required. If the site has benefited you, you can optionally support the service to help keep it free for everyone.

Data Source & Accuracy

Prayer times are sourced from the Aladhan API — an open-source Islamic prayer times engine that implements the established astronomical algorithms (Jean Meeus, Astronomical Algorithms) used by major Islamic organisations worldwide. Times are recalculated daily for each city's precise coordinates and are accurate to the minute. Users can switch calculation methods via the settings panel on any city page.
