Prayer Times in Stockholm — January 2026

Reading the January 2026 table

If you are in Stockholm today (Monday, 31 August 2026), the five daily prayers fall at 02:47 (Fajr), 12:48 (Dhuhr), 16:32 (Asr), 19:54 (Maghrib) and 22:32 (Isha). Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the Europe/Stockholm timezone (UTC+2 · CEST), the Muslim World League convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Coordinates for Stockholm: 59.3293, 18.0686. Time zone Europe/Stockholm (UTC+2 · CEST) already includes daylight saving when the zone observes it, so you do not add or subtract an hour by hand in August. The listed population is about 980,000 people.

At this latitude the northern summer night is short and the winter night is long. Fajr and Isha angles are not always reached in midsummer, so the timetable falls back to a night-portion rule (middle of the night by default). That is why Fajr in Stockholm can look “late” in June and Isha “early” compared with cities closer to the equator. In August 2026 sunrise is 05:42 and Maghrib is 19:54 — a useful check of how compressed or stretched the day currently is.

Calculation for Stockholm 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 Stockholm 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 Stockholm is 148.2° from true north (SSE), about 4,554 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 Gothenburg (397 km), prayer times in Malmö (513 km), prayer times in Helsinki (396 km), prayer times in Oslo (416 km), prayer times in Copenhagen (522 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 Stockholm is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
