Coordinates for Dearborn: 42.3223, -83.1763. Time zone America/Detroit (UTC−4 · EDT) 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 110,000 people.

For the latitude of Dearborn, day length changes clearly from winter to summer. In August 2026 sunrise is 06:56 and Maghrib is 20:11. Dhuhr (13:33) 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 Dearborn’s own coordinates rather than a national average.

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

Dearborn, Michigan, is home to one of the highest concentrations of Arab Americans in the United States. Local Islamic centres often follow ISNA. The city’s latitude is close to Detroit’s, so the two timetables differ by well under a minute.

Qibla from Dearborn is 51.9° from true north (NE), about 10,832 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 Detroit (11 km), prayer times in Ann Arbor (47 km), prayer times in Cleveland (153 km), prayer times in Columbus (263 km), prayer times in Pittsburgh (338 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 Dearborn is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
