Prayer Times in Seattle — October 2024

Reading the October 2024 table

If you are in Seattle today (Sunday, 30 August 2026), the five daily prayers fall at 04:54 (Fajr), 13:10 (Dhuhr), 16:54 (Asr), 19:54 (Maghrib) and 21:25 (Isha). Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the America/Los_Angeles timezone (UTC−7 · PDT), the Islamic Society of North America convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Seattle is listed under Washington in United States. The engine uses 47.6062 latitude and -122.3321 longitude with IANA zone America/Los_Angeles. 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 750,000 people.

For the latitude of Seattle, day length changes clearly from winter to summer. In August 2026 sunrise is 06:26 and Maghrib is 19:54. Dhuhr (13:10) sits near local solar noon. That seasonal swing is the reason a UK timetable cannot be reused in United States, and why this page is calculated from Seattle’s own coordinates rather than a national average.

Calculation for Seattle starts from Islamic Society of North America. 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. Many North American Islamic centres follow ISNA (15°/15°). If your masjid prints later Fajr than this page, switch the method to ISNA.

Seattle (United States) 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 Seattle is 17.6° from true north (NNE), about 12,135 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 Portland (234 km), prayer times in Sacramento (1006 km), prayer times in Oakland (1090 km), prayer times in San Francisco (1093 km), prayer times in San Jose (1142 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 Seattle is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
