Prayer Times in Tampa — 2028

If you are in Tampa today (Sunday, 30 August 2026), the five daily prayers fall at 06:01 (Fajr), 13:30 (Dhuhr), 17:03 (Asr), 19:54 (Maghrib) and 20:59 (Isha). Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the America/New_York timezone (UTC−4 · EDT), the Islamic Society of North America convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Tampa is listed under Florida in United States. The engine uses 27.9506 latitude and -82.4572 longitude with IANA zone America/New_York. 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 400,000 people.

Tampa 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 07:08 and Maghrib is at 19:54. Dhuhr (13:30) tracks astronomical noon plus a small equation-of-time correction, which is why a printed table copied from another country will not match Tampa.

Calculation for Tampa 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.

Tampa (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 Tampa is 54.8° from true north (NE), about 11,736 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 Orlando (124 km), prayer times in Jacksonville (276 km), prayer times in Miami (331 km), prayer times in Atlanta (671 km), prayer times in New Orleans (773 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 Tampa is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
