Prayer Times in Amman

Amman prayer times overview

The Amman page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.

Local time is applied for Amman: the city's time zone is Same as Moscow time (MSK). This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.

Amman coordinates: 31.9454°N and 35.9284°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. For southern latitudes, the seasonal changes in day and night length are more moderate.

The prayer schedule does not depend only on the region's official time. It is affected by the sun's altitude above the horizon, so in neighbouring cities the Fajr, Dhuhr and Maghrib values may differ. In southern cities, differences are often noticeable in sunrise, Dhuhr and Maghrib times.
