Prayer Times in Ann Arbor — 2028

Prayer times in Ann Arbor today (Sunday, 30 August 2026): Fajr 05:37, Sunrise 06:58, Dhuhr 13:36, Asr 17:18, Maghrib 20:13, Isha 21:34. Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the America/Detroit timezone (UTC−4 · EDT), the Islamic Society of North America convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Ann Arbor is listed under Michigan in United States. The engine uses 42.2808 latitude and -83.7430 longitude with IANA zone America/Detroit. A mosque a few kilometres away will usually match these times to the minute; a different city, even in the same metro area, can drift by two to five minutes because longitude shifts solar noon. The listed population is about 120,000 people.

For the latitude of Ann Arbor, day length changes clearly from winter to summer. In August 2026 sunrise is 06:58 and Maghrib is 20:13. Dhuhr (13:36) sits near local solar noon. That seasonal swing is the reason a UK timetable cannot be reused in United States, and why this page is calculated from Ann Arbor’s own coordinates rather than a national average.

The Islamic Society of North America method is the starting point on this Ann Arbor page. Fajr and Isha are defined by solar depression angles (or, for Umm al-Qura, a Maghrib-plus-minutes rule). Asr is shown with the Standard shadow factor of 1, used by the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali schools and by most Western mosque boards. Many North American Islamic centres follow ISNA (15°/15°). If your masjid prints later Fajr than this page, switch the method to ISNA.

Ann Arbor (United States) has both long-established and newer Muslim communities. Jumu'ah times are set by each mosque and are not computed here — only the five daily prayers and sunrise.

Qibla from Ann Arbor is 51.5° from true north (NE), about 10,871 km from the Kaaba in Makkah. A phone compass is only as good as its calibration; once you have identified a wall that faces that bearing, you can mark it and stop re-measuring every day. Magnetic declination is not applied on this page — the figure is geographic, which is what a qibla diagram expects.

Nearby timetables: prayer times in Dearborn (47 km), prayer times in Detroit (58 km), prayer times in Cleveland (191 km), prayer times in Columbus (265 km), prayer times in Chicago (324 km). Neighbouring cities share almost the same latitude, so Fajr and Isha usually differ by one to four minutes — mostly longitude and the minute the time zone snaps to.

This page is an astronomical estimate, not a fatwa and not a substitute for the announcement in your local masjid. Some congregations publish a one- to three-minute precaution. If your mosque uses a different Fajr angle, switch the method above or apply a manual minute offset. For personal prayer, a coordinate-based calculation for Ann Arbor is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
