Prayer Times in Makkah — June 2026

Reading the June 2026 table

Today’s Islamic salah schedule for Makkah — Monday, 31 August 2026 — is Fajr at 04:46, Dhuhr at 12:21, Asr at 15:46, Maghrib at 18:39 and Isha at 20:09. Sunrise (Shuruq) is 06:04. Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the Asia/Riyadh timezone (UTC+3), the Umm al-Qura University, Makkah convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Makkah is listed under Makkah in Saudi Arabia. The engine uses 21.4225 latitude and 39.8262 longitude with IANA zone Asia/Riyadh. 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 2.0 million people.

Makkah 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 06:04 and Maghrib is at 18:39. Dhuhr (12:21) tracks astronomical noon plus a small equation-of-time correction, which is why a printed table copied from another country will not match Makkah.

Calculation for Makkah starts from Umm al-Qura University, Makkah. 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. Official Gulf tables generally follow Umm al-Qura, with Isha a fixed interval after Maghrib rather than a twilight angle.

Makkah is the qibla itself. Prayer times here still depend on solar altitude: Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are not “special-cased” except that the Umm al-Qura method originated for this region. Pilgrims should follow the local haram announcements during Hajj and Umrah.

Qibla from Makkah is 156.7° from true north (SSE), about 0 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 Taif (63 km), prayer times in Jeddah (69 km), prayer times in Madinah (346 km), prayer times in Abha (453 km), prayer times in Riyadh (790 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 Makkah is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
