Prayer Times in Hobart — April 2026

Reading the April 2026 table

Accurate prayer times for Hobart on Monday, 31 August 2026: Fajr 05:05, Shuruq 06:40, Dhuhr 12:11, Asr 15:13, Maghrib 17:44, Isha 19:12. Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the Australia/Hobart timezone (UTC+10 · AEST), the Muslim World League convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Hobart sits in Tasmania, Australia, at -42.8821°, 147.3272°. 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 listed population is about 240,000 people.

For the latitude of Hobart, day length changes clearly from winter to summer. In August 2026 sunrise is 06:40 and Maghrib is 17:44. Dhuhr (12:11) sits near local solar noon. That seasonal swing is the reason a UK timetable cannot be reused in Australia, and why this page is calculated from Hobart’s own coordinates rather than a national average.

The Muslim World League method is the starting point on this Hobart 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. If a local mosque publishes a different Fajr or Isha angle, pick that method in the selector or apply a minute offset.

Muslims in Hobart 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 Hobart is 275.0° from true north (W), about 13,008 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 Melbourne (598 km), prayer times in Canberra (859 km), prayer times in Sydney (1057 km), prayer times in Adelaide (1162 km), prayer times in Gold Coast (1741 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 Hobart is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
