Prayer Times in Bristol — 2025

Today’s Islamic salah schedule for Bristol — Sunday, 30 August 2026 — is Fajr at 04:13, Dhuhr at 13:11, Asr at 16:56, Maghrib at 20:02 and Isha at 21:59. Sunrise (Shuruq) is 06:20. 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.

Coordinates for Bristol: 51.4545, -2.5879. Time zone Europe/London (UTC+1 · BST) already includes daylight saving when the zone observes it, so you do not add or subtract an hour by hand in August. The listed population is about 470,000 people.

For the latitude of Bristol, day length changes clearly from winter to summer. In August 2026 sunrise is 06:20 and Maghrib is 20:02. Dhuhr (13:11) 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 Bristol’s own coordinates rather than a national average.

Calculation for Bristol 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.

Travellers through Bristol should remember that airport and hotel clocks follow civil time, which this timetable already uses. Maghrib is tied to sunset at the city’s coordinates, not to the time a flight lands.

Qibla from Bristol is 116.3° from true north (ESE), about 4,942 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 Cardiff (41 km), prayer times in Oxford (98 km), prayer times in Southampton (102 km), prayer times in Reading (112 km), prayer times in Birmingham (124 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 Bristol is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
