Prayer Times in Dhaka — 2030

Today’s Islamic salah schedule for Dhaka — Monday, 31 August 2026 — is Fajr at 04:22, Dhuhr at 11:59, Asr at 16:30, Maghrib at 18:19 and Isha at 19:35. Sunrise (Shuruq) is 05:40. Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the Asia/Dhaka timezone (UTC+6), the University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi convention and Hanafi (double-shadow) Asr.

Dhaka sits in Dhaka, Bangladesh, at 23.8103°, 90.4125°. 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 urban area is on the order of 8.9 million people.

Dhaka is close enough to the tropics that twilight angles are usually reached every night of the year. High-latitude patches are rarely needed. In August 2026 the sun rises at 05:40 and Maghrib is at 18:19. Dhuhr (11:59) tracks astronomical noon plus a small equation-of-time correction, which is why a printed table copied from another country will not match Dhaka.

Calculation for Dhaka starts from University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi. Changing the method moves Fajr and Isha by several minutes; changing Asr madhhab moves only Asr. Asr is shown in the Hanafi manner (shadow factor 2), which is the usual printed convention in much of South and Central Asia. Subcontinental pocket calendars almost always use Karachi angles with Hanafi Asr. Confirm against the local mosque in Ramadan, when some boards add a precaution.

Muslims in Dhaka 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 Dhaka is 277.6° from true north (W), about 5,172 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 Khulna (139 km), prayer times in Sylhet (191 km), prayer times in Rajshahi (194 km), prayer times in Chittagong (214 km), prayer times in Kolkata (251 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 Dhaka is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
