Prayer Times in Kumasi — 2028

Today’s Islamic salah schedule for Kumasi — Sunday, 30 August 2026 — is Fajr at 04:49, Dhuhr at 12:07, Asr at 15:13, Maghrib at 18:16 and Isha at 19:21. Sunrise (Shuruq) is 06:00. Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the Africa/Accra timezone (UTC+0 · GMT), the Muslim World League convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Coordinates for Kumasi: 6.6885, -1.6244. Time zone Africa/Accra (UTC+0 · GMT) already includes daylight saving when the zone observes it, so you do not add or subtract an hour by hand in August. The urban area is on the order of 2.0 million people.

Kumasi 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 06:00 and Maghrib is at 18:16. Dhuhr (12:07) tracks astronomical noon plus a small equation-of-time correction, which is why a printed table copied from another country will not match Kumasi.

Calculation for Kumasi 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.

Travellers through Kumasi should remember that airport and hotel clocks follow civil time, which this timetable already uses. Maghrib is tied to sunset at the city’s coordinates, not to the time a flight lands.

Qibla from Kumasi is 65.4° from true north (ENE), about 4,742 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 Accra (200 km), prayer times in Lagos (553 km), prayer times in Ibadan (620 km), prayer times in Abuja (1029 km), prayer times in Kaduna (1081 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 Kumasi is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
