Prayer Times in Malmö, Sweden

Prayer times in Malmö are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (55.61°N). We use the Muslim World League method, the one followed across Sweden. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.

Malmö's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Sweden. They are drawn from Malmö's own coordinates (55.6059°N, 13.0007°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Malmö's prayer times are worked out

From Malmö, the Qibla is 139° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,402 km (2,735 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Malmö's own coordinates (55.61°N, 13.00°E), not a national average. That is why Malmö's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Malmö timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Malmö lies well west inside its Stockholm time zone. So the sun peaks about 16 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:14 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 18h 27m near June down to 9h 23m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Malmö 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 Lund, Copenhagen and Frederiksberg. Each is only a few minutes off Malmö's clock.

Sweden's unified timetable and the midnight-sun problem

Sweden is unusual. Since 1 May 2016 its mosques have shared one national timetable. The Swedish Imam Council adopted it, and Islamiska Förbundet publishes it. It is based on the Turkish Diyanet's calculation, which uses the same 18°/17° twilight angles as the Muslim World League method this page applies. So the times here line up closely with the national convention. The official table adds small precaution margins. The real challenge is latitude. From early May to early August, true night never falls over much of Sweden. The Imam Council's own guidance notes that the sharia signs for Isha and Fajr disappear. Northern communities therefore follow the nearest city with usable times. For Ramadan, guidance from the European Council for Fatwa permits estimation where the signs are absent.

Mosques of Stockholm, Malmö and the north

The Stockholm Mosque on Södermalm opened in 2000. It is named for its Emirati benefactor, Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, and is the capital's largest. Malmö's mosque, inaugurated in 1984, was among the country's first purpose-built. Sweden keeps no religious statistics. Pew estimated its Muslim-background population at roughly 8% in 2016, among the highest shares in Western Europe. Its roots run from Iraq and Syria to Somalia, Bosnia and Turkey. Clocks change with the EU, on the last Sundays of March and October. In midsummer the far north sees no sunset at all, and communities in Kiruna have been advised to follow Stockholm's timetable.

Mosques in Malmö
