Prayer Times in Bergen, Norway
Prayer times in Bergen are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (60.39°N). We use the Muslim World League method, the one followed across Norway. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.
Bergen's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Norway. They are drawn from Bergen's own coordinates (60.3930°N, 5.3242°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.
How Bergen's prayer times are worked out
From Bergen, the Qibla is 133° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 5,098 km (3,168 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Bergen's own coordinates (60.39°N, 5.32°E), not a national average. That is why Bergen's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.
Daylight is the hard part in Bergen. At 60.39°N, 5.32°E, the sun never drops the full 18° below the horizon in midsummer. So the twilight that sets Fajr and Isha never arrives. Read literally, the fast would run past twenty hours. Mosques in Bergen follow an agreed rule instead. Most use the times of the nearest town where night still falls, or Mecca's clock. A calculated Fajr works in the darker months. Near midsummer, check with your local mosque.
The Fajr and Isha angles for Bergen come from the Muslim World League. The Muslim World League method sets Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha at 17°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. We also publish times for nearby Stavanger, Sandnes and Ålesund. Each is only a few minutes off Bergen's clock.

Toward one Norwegian timetable
For decades Norwegian prayer times varied mosque to mosque — a legacy of communities that arrived from the 1970s onward, each bringing its own convention. Since 2020 the Islamic Council of Norway (Islamsk Råd Norge) has led the Felles bønnetid project. A committee of imams, scholars and astronomers is building one shared national timetable. It is published at bonnetid.no and in the Bønnetid app. Individual mosques may still differ. This page applies the Muslim World League calculation (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°) to this city's own coordinates. Norway follows the EU clock changes, on the last Sundays of March and October. Its Muslim population is among Scandinavia's largest: 201,899 registered community members at the start of 2026, with real numbers estimated well higher.
Oslo's congregations and Ramadan under the midnight sun
Oslo's Central Jamaat-e Ahl-e Sunnat has some six thousand members, making it Norway's largest Muslim congregation. The Baitun Nasr mosque at Furuset opened in 2011 with room for over two thousand. Built and run by the Ahmadiyya community, it is the largest mosque building in the Nordic countries. North of the Arctic Circle, Ramadan poses a question few countries face: in Tromsø the summer sun never sets. Guidance offered three answers — follow Mecca's schedule, follow the nearest city where the sun still sets, or fix a community practice. Tromsø's Muslims chose to fast on Mecca's times. Everywhere else, the long Norwegian summer days simply make for long fasts and late, bright Isha prayers.
Mosques in Bergen
A mosque serving Bergen is Bergen Moské. The times on this page are worked out from Bergen's own coordinates, and they apply across these mosques. Check the exact iqama time with your local mosque. That is the congregation, called a few minutes after each prayer starts.

Bergen Prayer Times — FAQ
What direction is Qibla from Bergen?
The Qibla direction from Bergen, Norway is 133° from true north. Face southeast toward Mecca, Saudi Arabia, which lies 5,098 km (3,168 miles) away.
How long is the fast in Bergen?
Bergen sits at 60.39°N. Around midsummer the sun never drops 18° below the horizon there, so no calculated Fajr or Isha is meaningful, and an angle-based fast would run past 20 hours. Mosques here follow an agreed convention instead. That is usually the nearest city where night still falls, or Mecca's clock. In winter the calculated times apply normally.
How do Muslims in northern Norway fast when the sun never sets?
Norway handles this by adopted convention. When Ramadan falls in the midnight-sun months, guidance allows following Mecca's schedule, or that of the nearest city with a real sunset. Tromsø's community follows Mecca times. Elsewhere in Norway, fasting follows the local sun. The Islamic Council of Norway's unified timetable (bonnetid.no) is the emerging national reference, while this page computes times for this city's own coordinates.
