Prayer times in Medina

Prayer times for Medina, Saudi Arabia, computed for 2026-07-13. Today Fajr begins at 04:12 and Maghrib at 19:13 (Asia/Riyadh time), a fast of 15 hours and 1 minutes between the two. Sunrise (Shuruq) is at 05:41, Dhuhr at 12:27, Asr at 15:49 and Isha at 20:43. Medina sits at 24.4700 N, 39.6100 E, home to about 1 300 000 people, and the Qibla bearing from here is 176,2 degrees from true north. Calculation method: Umm al-Qura (Saudi Arabia).

The five salat in Medina: today and tomorrow

Both tables are here on purpose. The site rebuilds once a day in universal time and a single HTML file is served to every timezone, so claiming only "today" would be false for a few hours across part of the world. That is why Medina shows today and tomorrow, and the calculation block above flags which of the two applies by the clock on your device. Shuruq is sunrise, sitting between Fajr and Dhuhr.

How far each time drifts from one day to the next in Medina

Geography of the times in Medina

The Kaaba, in Mecca, lies 340 km from Medina in a straight line, toward the south (176,2 degrees from true north): that is where the Qibla points. The sun crosses its highest point 27 minutes after local clock noon, which is why Dhuhr begins at 12:27. Today the span between Fajr and Maghrib, the daily fast, runs 15 hours and 1 minutes in Medina.

Calculation method in Medina

What separates one calculation authority from another is a single number: the angle of the sun under the horizon that defines Fajr at dawn and Isha at dusk. Medina follows the Umm al-Qura (Saudi Arabia), adopted across the region, with Fajr at 18.5 degrees, Isha 90 minutes after Maghrib. Sunrise (Shuruq), solar noon (Dhuhr) and sunset (Maghrib) hardly move from one method to the next. Asr, however, shifts with the school of jurisprudence, and the default used here is Shafi (shadow reaches once the object height). In the Hanafi school Asr comes later.

Honesty and sources

Treat this table as a verifiable starting point, not the final word: the one who calls the prayer in Medina is the local mosque, and its authority prevails over any calculation. Different authorities land a few minutes apart, and it is common to add an ihtiyat of precaution to Fajr or to push Isha later. Underneath, these are the Meeus solar formulas applied to 24.4700 N, 39.6100 E (Asia/Riyadh timezone) by the open adhan-js library, MIT licensed by Batoul Apps. Ramadan and Eid are left out on purpose, because they hinge on sighting the hilal and on proclamation, not on arithmetic. And the interactive part is private: the calculations happen in your browser and your location, if granted, remains on the device.
