How these times are calculated
Times follow the official Qatar calendar: Fajr at a solar depression of 18°, and Isha 90 minutes after Maghrib.
Times are calculated for the city centre at the coordinates shown; a local mosque a few streets away can differ by about a minute, and printed official calendars remain the reference for mosque announcements.
Coordinates: 25.2854, 51.531 · Asia/Qatar
Times are calculated live in your browser on every visit — they never go stale and need no update. Calculation parameters verified against official calendars in November 2026.
Prayer times are set by the sun, not by the clock on the wall: Fajr begins at dawn twilight, Dhuhr just after the sun passes its highest point, Asr from the length of shadows in the afternoon, Maghrib at sunset, and Isha when the twilight has gone. In Doha those moments are published by the Ministry of Awqaf & Islamic Affairs (Qatar Calendar House), and this page calculates them with exactly that method, in your browser, for the day you open it — so the times you see are never a stale copy of somebody else's table.

The six times move every day. Across a single month in Doha, Fajr and Maghrib can each drift by ten minutes or more as the season turns, which is why the monthly timetable below matters: it prints every day of the month with its Hijri date alongside, the same way the official printed calendars present it. Use the month buttons to move backwards or forwards — the table is calculated on demand for whichever month you choose, and today's row is always highlighted when you are looking at the current month.
One time deserves a special note: Asr. The majority schools (Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali) start Asr when a shadow equals the object's length; the Hanafi school waits until the shadow is twice the length. In Doha the difference is roughly three quarters of an hour, and both communities live here — so this page shows a toggle above the today table. The page opens on the country's official (Shafi'i) Asr; switch to Hanafi if that is your practice. Your choice is stored on your device and applied to the countdown as well; the printed monthly table always uses the country default so it matches the official calendar.
In Ramadan the day is framed by two of these times: Fajr is Imsak, the start of the fast, and Maghrib is Iftar, its end. During Ramadan this page adds a fasting strip that counts down the remaining fast, and the monthly table becomes the month's fasting calendar. Isha here keeps its usual rule through Ramadan, exactly as the official calendar prints it.
Finally, a word on precision. These times are calculated for the coordinates of Doha's centre shown above. Sunrise, sunset and twilight shift by seconds across a city, so a mosque at the city's edge may print a time one minute either side of ours; mosques also commonly add a few minutes before the congregational prayer. Treat this page as the accurate astronomical time for the city, and your mosque's board as the authority for its own congregation.
Frequently asked questions
What are the prayer times in Doha today?
On the snapshot date (Tuesday, 10 November 2026), the times in Doha are: Fajr 4:29 AM, Sunrise 5:47 AM, Dhuhr 11:18 AM, Asr 2:26 PM, Maghrib 4:48 PM and Isha 6:18 PM. The live table at the top of this page always shows the current day, calculated in your browser the moment you open it.
Which calculation method is used for Doha?
Times follow the official Qatar calendar: Fajr at a solar depression of 18°, and Isha 90 minutes after Maghrib. The Asr time follows the Shafi'i school by default, and the toggle on this page can switch it — see the next question.
Why does the Asr time differ between the Shafi'i and Hanafi schools?
Asr begins when an object's shadow equals its length (plus the noon shadow) in the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali schools, and when the shadow reaches twice the length in the Hanafi school — which is why Hanafi Asr is later, by roughly 40–50 minutes at these latitudes. Both times are shown on this page: the toggle above the today table switches the display, and your choice is remembered on this device.
What time is Maghrib in Doha, and when is Iftar in Ramadan?
Maghrib is at sunset — in the snapshot above it falls at 4:48 PM. In Ramadan, Maghrib is the Iftar time and Fajr is the Imsak (fasting start) time; during Ramadan this page shows a fasting strip counting down from Fajr to Maghrib, and for the monthly table gives you the whole month's fasting times day by day.
Why might my mosque's times differ by a minute or two?
These times are calculated for the city centre coordinates shown on this page. A mosque across the city can sit a minute or so either side of the centre value, and many mosques add a fixed few minutes between the adhan time printed here and their congregational (iqama) time. The official printed calendar remains the reference for any single mosque.
Note: these times are calculated astronomically for the city centre using the official method named above. For mosque congregational times, follow your local mosque's announced schedule, which may add a few minutes after the adhan time.
