Prayer Times in Hong Kong — October 2026

Reading the October 2026 table

If you are in Hong Kong today (Monday, 31 August 2026), the five daily prayers fall at 04:49 (Fajr), 12:24 (Dhuhr), 15:50 (Asr), 18:42 (Maghrib) and 19:53 (Isha). Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the Asia/Hong_Kong timezone (UTC+8 · HKT), the Muslim World League convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Hong Kong is listed under Hong Kong in China. The engine uses 22.3193 latitude and 114.1694 longitude with IANA zone Asia/Hong_Kong. 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 urban area is on the order of 7.5 million people.

Hong Kong 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 06:06 and Maghrib is at 18:42. Dhuhr (12:24) tracks astronomical noon plus a small equation-of-time correction, which is why a printed table copied from another country will not match Hong Kong.

Calculation for Hong Kong 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.

Hong Kong (China) 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 Hong Kong is 285.1° from true north (WNW), about 7,585 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 Guangzhou (129 km), prayer times in Shanghai (1227 km), prayer times in Beijing (1967 km), prayer times in Urumqi (3412 km), prayer times in Kashgar (4070 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 Hong Kong is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
