Prayer Times in Brighton — 2023

Today’s Islamic salah schedule for Brighton — Monday, 31 August 2026 — is Fajr at 04:09, Dhuhr at 13:01, Asr at 16:45, Maghrib at 19:49 and Isha at 21:43. Sunrise (Shuruq) is 06:13. Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the Europe/London timezone (UTC+1 · BST), the Muslim World League convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Brighton sits in England, United Kingdom, at 50.8225°, -0.1372°. Those two numbers — latitude and longitude — are the entire geographic input for the timetable. Population on this page is treated as a ranking signal only; the prayer times themselves depend on the sun’s altitude as seen from this point on Earth. The listed population is about 290,000 people.

For the latitude of Brighton, day length changes clearly from winter to summer. In August 2026 sunrise is 06:13 and Maghrib is 19:49. Dhuhr (13:01) sits near local solar noon. That seasonal swing is the reason a UK timetable cannot be reused in United Kingdom, and why this page is calculated from Brighton’s own coordinates rather than a national average.

Calculation for Brighton starts from Muslim World League. Changing the method moves Fajr and Isha by several minutes; changing Asr madhhab moves only Asr. 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. UK mosques often follow the Muslim World League or a local board such as the London Central Mosque / HMC. A one-minute precaution is common in winter.

Muslims in Brighton use a mix of mosque timetables, printed pocket calendars and apps. The figures on this page are meant to sit next to those sources: same coordinates, transparent method, no hidden offset unless you add one.

Qibla from Brighton is 118.3° from true north (ESE), about 4,758 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 London (76 km), prayer times in Tower Hamlets (78 km), prayer times in Newham (79 km), prayer times in Slough (83 km), prayer times in Southampton (89 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 Brighton is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
