Manchester Prayer Times | Salah Timetable Today

Today's salah times Manchester for the city centre and Greater Manchester area cover Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha. Times update daily based on the sun's position over Manchester (53.48°N, 2.24°W) and adjust automatically for British Summer Time, helping the local Muslim community pray on time across Cheetham Hill, Longsight, Rusholme, Levenshulme and beyond.

The live timetable above shows today's Manchester prayer times for Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha, calculated using the ISNA method by default. Use the Hanafi/Shafi'i toggle to switch the Asr calculation to match your madhhab. Sunrise marks the end of Fajr and the start of Ishraq, while Maghrib opens Iftar during Ramadan.

Manchester sits at a relatively northern latitude, so summer days bring very early Fajr and late Isha, while winter compresses the day. Always confirm with your nearest mosque (jamā'ah times often run a few minutes after the start time) for the exact iqāmah.

Jummah is held across Manchester's mosques, with khutbah typically starting between 1:00 PM and 1:45 PM depending on the season and the mosque. Larger congregations such as Manchester Central Mosque (Victoria Park), Cheetham Hill Mosque, Dar ul Amaan and BMHT Longsight host multiple Jummah sittings to accommodate workers and students from the University of Manchester and city-centre offices.

Arrive 15–20 minutes early for parking and to perform Sunnah prayers. Many Manchester mosques live-stream the khutbah on YouTube and post weekly updates on their websites for bank-holiday changes.

We use the Aladhan API with the ISNA method (Fajr 15°, Isha 15°) as default, with optional Muslim World League and Hanafi Asr (shadow factor 2x) calculations. Coordinates are based on Manchester city centre, with automatic timezone handling for Europe/London (GMT/BST).

Differences of 1–3 minutes between sources are normal — they reflect different twilight angles and rounding. For fiqh-specific concerns, defer to your local imam.

During Ramadan, Sehri (Suhoor) ends at the start of Fajr and Iftar opens with Maghrib. Manchester mosques host nightly Taraweeh after Isha, with the major masjids in Cheetham Hill, Longsight and Rusholme often offering free iftar meals supported by the local community and charities.

Plan suhoor with slow-release foods and hydration, and use the live timetable above to track Fajr and Maghrib accurately throughout the month.

Why do prayer times change daily in Manchester?

Earth's axial tilt and Manchester's northern latitude (53.48°N) cause sunrise and sunset to shift each day — most noticeably in spring and autumn, when Fajr and Isha can move several minutes per day.

Which calculation method is used?

ISNA by default, with Muslim World League and a Hanafi Asr toggle available. These are the standards most widely used by UK mosques.

Hanafi vs Shafi'i Asr in Manchester?

Hanafi Asr begins when an object's shadow equals twice its length (later in the afternoon). Shafi'i/standard Asr begins at one shadow length. Use the toggle on the live widget above to match your madhhab.

When does Ramadan start in Manchester?

Ramadan begins on the sighting of the new moon, typically late February to early March in the coming years. Follow announcements from your local mosque or the UK moon-sighting committees.
