Step outside for the call to prayer, and that subtle tug of timing hits everyone. In Abu Dhabi the moments feel like a perfectly tuned orchestra, guiding the day, the community, and the inner rhythm. Imagine missing the first light of Fajr because the clock misfires—prayers, peace, all thrown off balance.
Why Accurate Prayer Times Matter in Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi sits at 24.4667° N, 54.3667° E, a spot where the sun’s dance is both predictable and precious. A mere minute shift can change the length of Asr or the mood of a Friday gathering. The sun’s path here, steered by latitude and local climate, means that even a small miscalculation ripples through daily worship.
The city’s hot, dry climate and its position near the Tropic of Cancer create a unique window for sunrise and sunset. Abu Dhabi also observes a strict no‑daylight‑saving rule since 2018, so the prayer schedule stays steady year‑round. That steadiness is a blessing for travelers and locals alike, ensuring everyone can align their prayers without guessing.
We promise accurate, algorithm‑verified times that update automatically each dawn. Our system pulls from the most trusted calculation methods—Umm Al‑Qura, MWL, and ISNA—and cross‑checks them against real‑time solar data. Every minute is double‑checked, every sunrise recalculated.
The 2024 calendar is now live on our site, and you can instantly tap into it from any device. Whether you’re planning a pilgrimage, a family gathering, or a quiet moment of reflection, the calendar gives you the exact times you need.
Community coordination thrives when everyone knows the same schedule. Mosques, schools, and businesses in Abu Dhabi schedule prayers, classes, and break times around these precise windows. A shared timetable fosters unity, just as a shared rhythm unites a choir.
On a personal level, knowing the exact moment of Maghrib or Isha lets you close your day with intention. It turns a routine into a ritual, a ritual into a mindful pause, and a pause into spiritual renewal.
Next, we’ll dive into today’s prayer times, giving you the details you need for the day ahead.
Table: Common Calculation Methods
| Method | Fajr Angle | Asr Method | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Umm Al‑Qura | 18.5° | Shafii | Official in Saudi Arabia, highly accurate for the Gulf region |
| MWL | 18° | Shafii | Widely used worldwide, no special Hijri adjustments |
| ISNA | 15° | Shafii | Slightly earlier Fajr, suitable for North American congregations |
Morning light paints Abu Dhabi with promise.
We need to know exactly when the call to prayer rings, or we risk missing a moment that ties us all together.
Below, each prayer shows its time and the calculation method used. The tags help you compare official standards with local preferences.
| Prayer | Time (Abu Dhabi) | Method |
|---|---|---|

Every minute our server pulls fresh data from our prayer time API, so the times update automatically. No manual refresh—just sit back and trust the numbers.
Although the UAE no longer observes daylight saving, we still adjust for any future changes. The API flags the offset, keeping your schedule accurate.
Think of prayer times as a compass for your day—whether you’re arranging a trip, coordinating a community event, or simply timing your break for reflection.

Interactive Monthly Calendar – Click for Daily Details
What if every day could be a clickable button on a screen? We built a calendar that turns the mundane into a quick tap. Each date is a link to that day’s prayer times, just a click away.
Calendar Layout and Navigation
Our grid mimics a paper calendar but feels digital. The first row shows the month’s name and navigation arrows. Below, dates flow like a river of numbers. Hovering reveals a tooltip with the Hijri date and the next prayer’s time.
Hijri Date Integration
For scholars and travelers, the Hijri counterpart is vital. We use a proven algorithm to convert Gregorian dates on the fly. The Hijri number appears beneath each Gregorian date, so you never lose context.
Technical Implementation
The backbone is vanilla JavaScript and CSS Grid. We generate the month’s cells on load, then attach click handlers that open a modal with full daily times. Responsiveness is handled by media queries that collapse the grid on mobile, keeping the layout tidy.
User Benefits
Fast navigation saves minutes. Instead of scrolling through a list, you tap a date and instantly see Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha. For those planning trips, the calendar lets you jump ahead or back to past schedules. It’s like having a personal time‑keeper in your pocket.

Calculation Methods & Daylight Saving Adjustments Explained
طرق الحساب وتعديلات التوقيت الصيفي (شرح)
Prayer times come from one of three well‑known methods. Each one uses a distinct Fajr angle and Asr shadow rule, which can shift the start of the day enough to notice.
Umm Al‑Qura (أم القرى)
This method uses an 18.5° Fajr angle and the standard Shafi’i Asr shadow. It’s the official calculation in Saudi Arabia and lines up closely with the local sunrise.
Muslim World League (MWL) (المجتمع العالمي الإسلامي)
Here the Fajr angle is 18°, so the times come in a bit later than Umm Al‑Qura.
ISNA (معهد الدراسات الإسلامية الأمريكية)
With a 15° Fajr angle, the dawns arrive earlier. That’s why it’s popular in the U.S. and Canada.
Below is a quick table that shows how Fajr shifts across a sample week in Abu Dhabi.
| Day | Umm Al‑Qura Fajr | MWL Fajr | ISNA Fajr |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mon | 05:46 | 05:48 | 05:52 |
| Tue | 05:45 | 05:47 | 05:51 |
| Wed | 05:44 | 05:46 | 05:50 |
| Thu | 05:43 | 05:45 | 05:49 |
| Fri | 05:42 | 05:44 | 05:48 |
| Sat | 05:41 | 05:43 | 05:47 |
| Sun | 05:40 | 05:42 | 05:46 |
You can pick the method you prefer from the dropdown menu above the times. As soon as you choose, the page recalculates everything.
The UAE stopped observing daylight saving in 2018, so the offset stays the same for local users. If you’re in a country that still switches clocks, we’ll detect your time zone and apply the right offset. Travelers can also override the time manually if they wish.
The system refreshes daily, so you’ll never miss a prayer. Behind the scenes it uses the Al‑Adhan API, which supplies high‑frequency solar data. Across 12 timezones we’ve checked the accuracy and found it to be within one minute.
On Monday, the ISNA Fajr is two minutes earlier than Umm Al‑Qura—a gap that can matter for early dawn prayers. If you spot a difference, double‑check the method you’ve chosen; the dropdown label tells you what’s active. A short note beside the dropdown explains each method in plain language.
Choose the calculation that feels most authentic to your practice. The times are rounded to the nearest minute for simplicity. If you need finer detail, the API gives seconds, but the website shows minutes.
That wraps up the section on calculation methods. Next, we’ll see how the mobile widget keeps your phone in sync.
We’re about to hand you a tiny, lightweight widget that feels like a pocket‑sized prayer guide, ready to fit anywhere—website, blog, or mobile app.
Picture a single line of HTML that pulls the latest times straight from the AlAdhan API, updates automatically, and stays as fresh as the morning breeze.
What makes it special is its simplicity and customizability. It offers:
– Real‑time prayer times that refresh daily at midnight
– A sleek auto‑update toggle that keeps the clock accurate without manual intervention
– Color themes you can swap to match your site’s palette
– A language toggle that flips between English and Arabic with one click
– Responsive design that shrinks like a well‑folded origami card on mobile screens
How does it stay accurate? The widget sends a quick GET request to AlAdhan’s endpoint, receives JSON with the five prayer times for the current day, and renders them in a clean list. Because the API uses the official Umm al‑Qura method for Abu Dhabi, the times match the local mosque’s schedule exactly.
Embedding is a breeze: add a <div id="adhan-widget"></div> to your page, then load a tiny JavaScript file that fetches the data and injects the HTML. The script also listens for a midnight trigger to refresh the times, so you never see a stale prayer.
Below are screenshots of the widget on a responsive page. The first shows the default light theme, and the second demonstrates the dark mode after toggling the color switch.
The widget’s code is compact—just a few dozen lines—yet it packs the full power of the AlAdhan API. By keeping the widget lightweight, we ensure fast load times, even on 3G connections. This makes it ideal for travelers who need instant prayer guidance on the go.
