Settings for Sydney
Pick the setting whose times look like your mosque’s printed timetable. These are the settings that came closest to timetables we compared. They are not rulings.
- If it prints Isha 90 minutes after Maghrib all year: try 18° / sunset + 90 min (the starting setting). Lakemba Mosque (Lebanese Muslim Association): 0.4 min apart at Fajr and 0.3 at Isha on average at the mosque’s location (355 days); United Muslims of Australia: 1.3 min apart at Fajr and 0.9 at Isha on average (370 days).
- If it prints Isha that moves with the season, not a fixed 90 minutes: try 18° / 17°. On 21 June Isha is 18:18 with this and 18:24 with the starting setting; on 21 December, 21:43 and 21:35.
- If it prints Asr 40 to 76 minutes later than this page, depending on the season: try the Hanafi Asr, in the method settings. In Sydney the Hanafi Asr starts 40 to 76 minutes after the Shafi time through 2027, 55 on average.
- If it isn’t like any of these, or you aren’t sure: try Match my mosque. Type a few times from its timetable and the page finds the nearest of our settings.
A gap of a few tenths of a minute can mean a timetable is made with the same formula, not that two sources agree on their own.
Limits of these times
These times are calculated, not observed, and they can’t say which timetable your mosque follows.
- No short-night rule needed. The sun goes at least 18° below the horizon every night of 2027 in Sydney, so the angle sets Fajr on every day with the starting setting.
- Near me and typed places. Outside the UK the starting setting changes at 48° north. Two places 0.02° apart across that line got Fajr up to 47 minutes apart and Isha up to 73 in 2027.
- Sea level. We calculate for sea level. Sydney is about 58 m above it; allowing for that height would move sunrise and sunset by roughly 1.2 to 1.3 minutes (our estimate from the height, between 21 March and 21 June).
- One point for the whole city. Times are for 33.87° south, 151.21° east. Every 0.1° further east or west moves each time by about 24 seconds.
How these times are made
Your device works out where the sun is for Sydney each day with adhan-js 4.4.6, the open-source library we use. Sunrise and sunset are when the top of the sun meets the horizon; Maghrib starts at sunset. Dhuhr starts at the sun’s highest point. Asr is when a shadow reaches a set length. Fajr and Isha are when the sun is a set angle below the horizon, or a rule sets them where it never gets that low.

How the Sydney figures were worked out
Worked out for this city with the starting setting: 18° / sunset + 90 min, twilight angle. Sydney starts on Fajr 18° with Isha 90 minutes after sunset: two Sydney sources we read sit about 8 minutes from 18° / 17° at Isha on average, and under a minute from this. Against local timetables we read for Sydney: United Muslims of Australia (370 days): Fajr 1.3 minutes apart on average, 3 at most; one local mosque page, read for one day (31 October 2026), which is a warning and not a score: Fajr 11 minutes apart on average, 11 at most; United Muslims of Australia prayer times (read for one day, 2 November 2026, which is a warning and not a score): Fajr 1 minutes apart on average, 1 at most; Lakemba Mosque (Lebanese Muslim Association) (read for one day, 2 November 2026, which is a warning and not a score): Fajr 0 minutes apart on average, 0 at most. Other Australian bodies differ, so please check yours.
With that setting in Sydney, the start time moves through 2027: Fajr time in Sydney starts between 03:54 on 7 December and 05:45 on 2 April. Dhuhr time in Sydney starts between 11:45 on 30 September and 13:09 on 1 February. Asr time in Sydney starts between 14:35 on 3 June and 16:52 on 26 January. Maghrib time in Sydney starts between 16:53 on 5 June and 20:10 on 2 January. Isha time in Sydney starts between 18:23 on 5 June and 21:40 on 2 January.
Asr above uses the Shafi, Maliki and Hanbali reading. The Hanafi reading starts later: with this setting, Hanafi Asr time in Sydney starts between 15:15 on 6 June and 18:02 on 13 January in 2027. You can switch Asr school in the method settings on this page.
Prayer times in Sydney are also called salah times, salat times or namaz times. They are the same five daily prayers. Your mosque’s timetable comes first.
