Prayer Times in Calgary — September 2026

Reading the September 2026 table

Prayer times in Calgary today (Sunday, 30 August 2026): Fajr 05:07, Sunrise 06:47, Dhuhr 13:37, Asr 17:22, Maghrib 20:27, Isha 22:06. Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the America/Edmonton timezone (UTC−6 · MDT), the Islamic Society of North America convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Coordinates for Calgary: 51.0447, -114.0719. Time zone America/Edmonton (UTC−6 · MDT) already includes daylight saving when the zone observes it, so you do not add or subtract an hour by hand in August. The urban area is on the order of 1.3 million people.

For the latitude of Calgary, day length changes clearly from winter to summer. In August 2026 sunrise is 06:47 and Maghrib is 20:27. Dhuhr (13:37) sits near local solar noon. That seasonal swing is the reason a UK timetable cannot be reused in Canada, and why this page is calculated from Calgary’s own coordinates rather than a national average.

The Islamic Society of North America method is the starting point on this Calgary 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.

Travellers through Calgary 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 Calgary is 25.0° from true north (NNE), about 11,562 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 Edmonton (281 km), prayer times in Surrey (658 km), prayer times in Vancouver (673 km), prayer times in Winnipeg (1203 km), prayer times in Windsor (2535 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 Calgary is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
