Prayer Times in Krakow — December 2028

Reading the December 2028 table

Today’s Islamic salah schedule for Krakow — Monday, 31 August 2026 — is Fajr at 03:53, Dhuhr at 12:41, Asr at 16:25, Maghrib at 19:28 and Isha at 21:19. Sunrise (Shuruq) is 05:53. Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the Europe/Warsaw timezone (UTC+2 · CEST), the Muslim World League convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Krakow is listed under Lesser Poland in Poland. The engine uses 50.0647 latitude and 19.9450 longitude with IANA zone Europe/Warsaw. 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 780,000 people.

For the latitude of Krakow, day length changes clearly from winter to summer. In August 2026 sunrise is 05:53 and Maghrib is 19:28. Dhuhr (12:41) sits near local solar noon. That seasonal swing is the reason a UK timetable cannot be reused in Poland, and why this page is calculated from Krakow’s own coordinates rather than a national average.

Calculation for Krakow 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.

Krakow (Poland) 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 Krakow is 144.1° from true north (SE), about 3,630 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 Warsaw (252 km), prayer times in Lviv (293 km), prayer times in Budapest (293 km), prayer times in Vienna (332 km), prayer times in Prague (393 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 Krakow is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
