Cologne prayer times overview

The Cologne prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.

Local time in Cologne is 1 hour behind Moscow time. For this reason, Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are calculated based on this city's data specifically, not the country's average time.

For Cologne the coordinates 50.9375°N and 6.9603°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. In this latitude zone, the day length changes noticeably throughout the year, but without sharp polar phenomena.

Cologne prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. In the mid-latitude zone, the seasonal shifts of Fajr and Maghrib are especially noticeable.

Today in Cologne 15 часов 5 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 06:05, while the evening prayer begins at 21:10. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.

In Cologne the period from Maghrib (21:10) to Fajr (03:31) lasts 6 часов 21 minute. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.

In the summer season in Cologne the evening prayer begins later, while the night interval shortens.

If you plan your day around the Cologne prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 03:31 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 21:10 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 23:31 the start of the night prayer.

The Cologne prayer schedule is calculated according to the method of the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of the Russian Federation (SAM RF), using the Hanafi madhhab to determine the Asr time. The data is updated daily and takes into account the city's exact geographic location.

Today's key reference points

  • Fajr — 03:31: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
  • Sunrise — 06:05: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
  • Dhuhr — 13:38: the time of the midday prayer.
  • Asr — 18:50: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
  • Maghrib — 21:10: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.
  • Isha — 23:31: the night prayer.

Questions about prayer times in Cologne

QuestionWhat explains the difference in prayer times between Cologne and neighbouring localities?
Answer

The prayer schedule directly depends on three factors: geographic latitude, longitude and the time zone. The sun rises and sets at its own time at every point on the globe, so the moments of Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha inevitably differ even between closely located localities. The greater the difference in latitude, the more noticeable the difference in the morning and evening prayer times. This is precisely why the schedule is drawn up to match the coordinates of each city.

QuestionHow often is the prayer schedule for Cologne updated?
Answer

The prayer schedule in Cologne is recalculated daily, because the position of the sun changes throughout the year. The daylight length gradually increases in spring and shortens in autumn, so the Fajr and Maghrib times shift literally every day. The fastest changes occur during the spring and autumn equinoxes. Therefore, we recommend checking with the current data daily.

QuestionIs this schedule suitable for determining suhur and iftar in Cologne?
Answer

Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (03:31) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (21:10): the fast can be broken as soon as the sun sets below the horizon. Since prayer times shift daily during Ramadan, we recommend checking the schedule daily so as not to be off even by a minute.

QuestionIs it acceptable to use the prayer times of a nearby city in Cologne?
Answer

It is better not to do this. Prayer times are calculated based on exact geographic coordinates, and even a relatively small distance between localities can shift the prayer moments by several minutes. The sunrise and sunset to which Fajr and Maghrib are tied occur at their own time at every point. Therefore, for believers in Cologne it is more correct to rely on a separate schedule calculated according to this city's coordinates specifically, especially when determining suhur and iftar during Ramadan.
