Prayer Times in Mexico City — May 2027

Reading the May 2027 table

Prayer times in Mexico City today (Sunday, 30 August 2026): Fajr 05:06, Sunrise 06:21, Dhuhr 12:37, Asr 15:59, Maghrib 18:54, Isha 20:03. Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the America/Mexico_City timezone (UTC−6 · CST), the Muslim World League convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Mexico City is listed under Mexico City in Mexico. The engine uses 19.4326 latitude and -99.1332 longitude with IANA zone America/Mexico_City. 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 9.2 million people.

Mexico City 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 06:21 and Maghrib is at 18:54. Dhuhr (12:37) tracks astronomical noon plus a small equation-of-time correction, which is why a printed table copied from another country will not match Mexico City.

The Muslim World League method is the starting point on this Mexico City 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.

Mexico City (Mexico) 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 Mexico City is 46.6° from true north (NE), about 13,647 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 San Antonio (1113 km), prayer times in Houston (1210 km), prayer times in Austin (1213 km), prayer times in New Orleans (1484 km), prayer times in Fort Worth (1492 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 Mexico City is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
