Prayer Times in Geneva — April 2026

Reading the April 2026 table

Today’s Islamic salah schedule for Geneva — Monday, 31 August 2026 — is Fajr at 05:05, Dhuhr at 13:36, Asr at 17:19, Maghrib at 20:17 and Isha at 21:58. Sunrise (Shuruq) is 06:54. Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the Europe/Zurich timezone (UTC+2 · CEST), the Muslim World League convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Geneva is listed under Geneva in Switzerland. The engine uses 46.2044 latitude and 6.1432 longitude with IANA zone Europe/Zurich. A mosque a few kilometres away will usually match these times to the minute; a different city, even in the same metro area, can drift by two to five minutes because longitude shifts solar noon. The listed population is about 200,000 people.

For the latitude of Geneva, day length changes clearly from winter to summer. In August 2026 sunrise is 06:54 and Maghrib is 20:17. Dhuhr (13:36) sits near local solar noon. That seasonal swing is the reason a UK timetable cannot be reused in Switzerland, and why this page is calculated from Geneva’s own coordinates rather than a national average.

Calculation for Geneva 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. If a local mosque publishes a different Fajr or Isha angle, pick that method in the selector or apply a minute offset.

Geneva (Switzerland) has both long-established and newer Muslim communities. Jumu'ah times are set by each mosque and are not computed here — only the five daily prayers and sunrise.

Qibla from Geneva is 120.7° from true north (ESE), about 4,102 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 Basel (186 km), prayer times in Zurich (224 km), prayer times in Lyon (112 km), prayer times in Turin (174 km), prayer times in Milan (250 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 Geneva is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
