Muslim World League, the usual method in Zambia: Fajr at 18° and Isha at 17°, with Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali Asr. You can change it under Calculation settings.

In 2026, Fajr is earliest on 22 November at 4:08 AM and latest on 20 July at 5:19 AM. Isha ranges from 6:55 PM (18 May) to 7:59 PM (20 January).

Ramadan is expected to begin on Monday, 8 February 2027 by the calculated calendar, and it can move by a day once the moon is sighted. On the first day Sehri ends at 4:45 AM and Iftar is at 6:42 PM.

From the sun’s position at your place. Fajr begins when the sun is a set angle below the horizon before dawn (18° in Bangladesh), Dhuhr just after the sun passes its highest point, Asr when a shadow reaches its noon length plus once (Shafi’i) or twice (Hanafi) the object’s height, Maghrib at sunset and Isha when twilight ends.

Use the one your country or mosque follows. The page picks it for you: Islamic Foundation (18°, Hanafi Asr) in Bangladesh, Karachi in India and Pakistan, Umm al-Qura in Saudi Arabia, ISNA in North America, the Muslim World League in much of Europe, and so on. You can change it under Calculation settings and the choice is remembered.

In the Hanafi school Asr begins when a shadow is twice an object’s height (plus its noon shadow); in the Shafi’i, Maliki and Hanbali schools, once its height. That makes Hanafi Asr about 45 minutes to an hour later.

Tahajjud can be prayed any time after Isha until Fajr, ideally after some sleep, but the last third of the night is best. The page shows when the last third begins, counting the night from sunset to Fajr.

No prayer is offered while the sun is rising (until about 15 minutes after sunrise), at its highest point just before Dhuhr (Zawal), and while it sets (the last 15 minutes or so before Maghrib). The page lists today’s three periods.

Mosques print the time each prayer begins, as here, but hold the jamaat a little later, and some add a few minutes of safety margin. Use your mosque’s jamaat times for congregation.
