Prayer Times in Johor Bahru — October 2026

Reading the October 2026 table

Prayer times in Johor Bahru today (Monday, 31 August 2026): Fajr 05:52, Sunrise 07:01, Dhuhr 13:05, Asr 16:18, Maghrib 19:11, Isha 20:15. Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the Asia/Kuala_Lumpur timezone (UTC+8), the Muslim World League convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Johor Bahru sits in Johor, Malaysia, at 1.4927°, 103.7414°. 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 800,000 people.

Johor Bahru 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 07:01 and Maghrib is at 19:11. Dhuhr (13:05) tracks astronomical noon plus a small equation-of-time correction, which is why a printed table copied from another country will not match Johor Bahru.

The Muslim World League method is the starting point on this Johor Bahru 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 Johor Bahru 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 Johor Bahru is 293.0° from true north (WNW), about 7,255 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 Kuala Lumpur (293 km), prayer times in Shah Alam (303 km), prayer times in Ipoh (454 km), prayer times in George Town (578 km), prayer times in Kuching (736 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 Johor Bahru is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
