Prayer Times in Singapore

Common questions

What time is Fajr in Singapore?

Fajr in Singapore moves through the year with the sun — earliest around midsummer, latest in midwinter. Across the 13 months this page covers it falls between 05:26 and 05:58 local time. The month tables give the exact time for every date.

What time is Maghrib in Singapore?

Maghrib in Singapore is sunset, so it moves with the season: across the 13 months on this page it falls between 18:50 and 19:21 local time. The month tables give the exact time for every date.

When does the last third of the night begin in Singapore?

It begins two-thirds of the way from Maghrib to the next Fajr, so it moves with the length of the night. In Singapore it falls between 01:54 and 02:26 local time across the 13 months this page covers, and Islamic midnight falls between 00:08 and 00:40. The month tables give both for every night.

Which calculation method is used for Singapore?

These times use the MUIS (Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura) method, which is the convention in this region. You can change the method on the prayer times page.

Why do prayer times differ between websites?

Nearly all of the difference comes from the angle each authority uses for Fajr and Isha. These times use the MUIS (Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura) method. In Singapore that matters by a measurable amount: a site using the ISNA method gives a Fajr 20 to 22 minutes later, and one using the Muslim World League method gives one 8 to 9 minutes later. A few minutes of variation between sources is normal; a difference of this size means a different method, not an error.

Are these times exact?

They are computed astronomically for 1.3521°, 103.8198° and are accurate to the minute at that point. The sun crosses 15° of longitude an hour, so moving 10 km east or west inside Singapore shifts every time by about 22 seconds — one timetable therefore holds across the whole city. Local altitude has a smaller effect, on sunrise and sunset.
