Prayer Times in Le Havre, France

Prayer times in Le Havre are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (49.49°N). We use the Muslim World League method, the one followed across France. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.

Le Havre's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in France. They are drawn from Le Havre's own coordinates (49.4935°N, 0.1079°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Le Havre's prayer times are worked out

From Le Havre, the Qibla is 117° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,673 km (2,904 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Le Havre's own coordinates (49.49°N, 0.11°E), not a national average. That is why Le Havre's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Le Havre timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Le Havre lies well west inside its Paris time zone. So the sun peaks about 68 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:58 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 17h 23m near June down to 10h 07m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Le Havre 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 Caen, Rouen and Évreux. Each is only a few minutes off Le Havre's clock.

Who sets prayer times in France

France is a laïque state. It has no official timetable and no national religious authority, so prayer times are set mosque by mosque. In practice two references dominate. The Grande Mosquée de Paris publishes its own timetables. Musulmans de France (formerly the UOIF) publishes a widely adopted calendar that uses 12° for both Fajr and Isha. Those angles are noticeably shallower than the Muslim World League's, which is why French timetables can differ from those of neighbouring countries. The Forum de l'islam de France was launched by the Interior Ministry in 2022 to replace the CFCM. It is a body for dialogue with the state, not an authority that issues prayer times.

The Grande Mosquée de Paris

France's Muslim population is largely of Maghrebi origin, and therefore predominantly Maliki. That is why mainstream French timetables use the standard first-shadow Asr. Mosques serving Turkish and South Asian communities follow the later Hanafi time instead. The Grande Mosquée de Paris was inaugurated in 1926. It was built as France's tribute to the roughly 100,000 Muslim colonial soldiers who died fighting for France in the First World War. During the Second World War its rector, Si Kaddour Benghabrit, is credited with sheltering Jews from the Gestapo. The Grande Mosquée de Lyon followed in 1994 and Strasbourg's in 2012.

Mosques in Le Havre
