How prayer times are calculated in Johannesburg
Prayer times in Johannesburg are calculated with the Muslim World League method and the Standard Asr setting. South African communities may use mosque-specific calendars, so this page keeps the calculation method explicit instead of implying one national mosque timetable.
The timetable is based on Johannesburg coordinates in the Africa/Johannesburg timezone. Areas such as Fordsburg, Mayfair, Lenasia, Sandton, Soweto, and the East Rand can have separate mosque notices for adhan, jamaat, Jumu'ah, and Ramadan programs.
Time Ranges for the Five Obligatory Prayers
| Prayer | Guidance | Starts | Ends |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fajr | It is important to perform the prayer between true dawn and the beginning of sunrise. | ||
| Dhuhr | This time begins once the sun passes its zenith. It is generally recommended not to delay the prayer without need. | ||
| Asr | Try not to delay Asr without a valid reason until the sun begins to turn yellow and move close to sunset. | ||
| Maghrib | It is recommended to pray Maghrib soon after sunset and not to delay it without need. | ||
| Isha | The time of Isha begins after the evening twilight disappears. It is preferable to perform it before the middle of the night. |
Times for Additional Prayers in Johannesburg
| Prayer | Guidance | Starts | Ends |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tahajjud and Witr | For Tahajjud, the best time is the last third of the night; Witr is performed after Isha and before Fajr. | ||
| Duha Prayer | After the sun has risen above the horizon and before zenith; its best time is when the sun has risen higher and its heat has intensified. |
