Prayer Times in Santiago — 2025

Today’s Islamic salah schedule for Santiago — Sunday, 30 August 2026 — is Fajr at 05:40, Dhuhr at 12:43, Asr at 15:56, Maghrib at 18:25 and Isha at 19:42. Sunrise (Shuruq) is 07:03. Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the America/Santiago timezone (UTC−4), the Muslim World League convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Santiago sits in Santiago, Chile, at -33.4489°, -70.6693°. 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 urban area is on the order of 5.6 million people.

For the latitude of Santiago, day length changes clearly from winter to summer. In August 2026 sunrise is 07:03 and Maghrib is 18:25. Dhuhr (12:43) sits near local solar noon. That seasonal swing is the reason a UK timetable cannot be reused in Chile, and why this page is calculated from Santiago’s own coordinates rather than a national average.

Calculation for Santiago 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.

Muslims in Santiago 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 Santiago is 81.8° from true north (E), about 13,149 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 Buenos Aires (1139 km), prayer times in Foz do Iguaçu (1786 km), prayer times in São Paulo (2585 km), prayer times in Rio de Janeiro (2927 km), prayer times in Bogotá (4258 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 Santiago is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
