Prayer times in Lahore

Prayer times for Lahore, Pakistan, computed for 2026-07-13. Today Fajr begins at 03:30 and Maghrib at 19:09 (Asia/Karachi time), a fast of 15 hours and 39 minutes between the two. Sunrise (Shuruq) is at 05:07, Dhuhr at 12:09, Asr at 17:02 and Isha at 20:46. Lahore sits at 31.5204 N, 74.3587 E, home to about 11,130,000 people, and the Qibla bearing from here is 260.4 degrees from true north. Calculation method: University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi.

Today and tomorrow in Lahore, side by side

We keep two days on the same page because the build runs once daily in UTC and the same file reaches every zone; promising only the present day would fail through the morning of half the planet. With today and tomorrow both visible, the tool just above resolves which column is correct in Lahore from the visitor local clock. Shuruq, sunrise, falls between Fajr and Dhuhr.

The next 30 days for Lahore at a glance, to plan the month. Each row is recomputed at build time from the position of the sun; Shuruq is sunrise.

The daily step of the times in Lahore

How fast the times slide depends on the season: nearly frozen at the solstices, quicker at the equinoxes, always led by Fajr and Isha. The last column measures that step in Lahore between today and tomorrow, which is why the page lastmod changes every day.

Geography of the times in Lahore

The Kaaba, in Mecca, lies 3,598 km from Lahore in a straight line, toward the west (260.4 degrees from true north): that is where the Qibla points. Today the span between Fajr and Maghrib, the daily fast, runs 15 hours and 39 minutes in Lahore. The sun crosses its highest point 9 minutes after local clock noon, which is why Dhuhr begins at 12:09.

Calculation method in Lahore

Fajr and Isha depend on the angle of the sun below the horizon adopted by each authority, and that angle is the only place the methods diverge. In Lahore we use the University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi, the most common in the region: Fajr at 18 degrees, Isha at 18 degrees. Dhuhr is solar noon, Maghrib is sunset and Shuruq is sunrise; those three barely change between methods. Asr depends on the school of law: the default here is Hanafi (shadow reaches twice the object height). In the Shafi school Asr comes earlier.

Honesty and sources

These times are a computed reference, not a substitute for the Lahore mosque announcement. The official methods can differ by a few minutes from one another, and many communities add a minute of precaution (ihtiyat) to Fajr or delay Isha; where your mosque differs, the local authority prevails. The math starts from the geometric position of the sun for 31.5204 N, 74.3587 E, in the Asia/Karachi timezone, with the Meeus formulas implemented by the open adhan-js library (MIT, by Batoul Apps), the same one behind many Islamic apps. The start of Ramadan and Eid is NOT here: those dates depend on moon sighting and the proclamation of authorities, not on calculation. Whatever runs in the browser stays in the browser; if you allow geolocation, your position never leaves the device.
