Prayer Times in Mönchengladbach, Germany
Prayer times in Mönchengladbach are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (51.19°N). We use the Muslim World League method, the one followed across Germany. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.
Mönchengladbach's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Germany. They are drawn from Mönchengladbach's own coordinates (51.1854°N, 6.4417°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.
How Mönchengladbach's prayer times are worked out
From Mönchengladbach, the Qibla is 126° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,390 km (2,728 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Mönchengladbach's own coordinates (51.19°N, 6.44°E), not a national average. That is why Mönchengladbach's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.
One local quirk shapes the Mönchengladbach timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Mönchengladbach lies well west inside its Berlin time zone. So the sun peaks about 43 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:19 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 17h 39m near June down to 9h 56m in December.
The Fajr and Isha angles for Mönchengladbach 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 Viersen, Willich and Grevenbroich. Each is only a few minutes off Mönchengladbach's clock.

Two Asr times are in use in Germany
Germany's largest Muslim community is Turkish-rooted and Hanafi, whose tradition recognises a later Asr — this page shows both times; check your own mosque's timetable. The time shown above for Mönchengladbach is the standard reckoning — 2:50 PM. The Hanafi time today is 3:31 PM. Follow whichever your mosque announces; you can make Hanafi the default in the settings above.
Who sets prayer times in Germany
Germany has no single national timetable — several calculation traditions coexist. The largest network is DITIB, the Turkish-Islamic Union, seated at Cologne. It publishes times calculated by Turkey's Diyanet. Those twilight angles (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°) are nominally the same as the Muslim World League method this page uses. The times here therefore sit within a few minutes of DITIB tables for most of the year. They diverge mainly in high summer, when persistent twilight forces German timetables to interpolate Fajr and Isha. Umbrella bodies such as the Zentralrat der Muslime and the Islamrat coordinate alongside DITIB. Germany's roughly 5.5 million Muslims (6.4-6.7% of the population, per the BAMF study) navigate between their conventions. Clocks follow the EU: forward the last Sunday of March, back the last Sunday of October.
Cologne's central mosque and the long summer fast
The Cologne Central Mosque is DITIB's flagship, inaugurated in 2018 with twin 55-metre minarets and a glass-and-concrete dome. It is among Germany's largest and most debated buildings. Berlin's Şehitlik Mosque was built between 1999 and 2005 in Ottoman Revival style, on the historic Turkish cemetery at Columbiadamm. Germany's latitude makes Ramadan demanding when it falls in summer. Fasts run seventeen to eighteen hours — among Europe's longest — and Isha comes close to midnight in June. Turkish-rooted communities dominate here, so the Hanafi Asr matters. This page shows both the standard and the later Hanafi time.

Mönchengladbach Prayer Times — FAQ
What direction is Qibla from Mönchengladbach?
The Qibla direction from Mönchengladbach, Germany is 126° from true north. Face southeast toward Mecca, Saudi Arabia, which lies 4,390 km (2,728 miles) away.
How long is the fast in Mönchengladbach?
The longest daily fast in Mönchengladbach is about 17h 39m, around June. The shortest is about 9h 56m, in December. That is a swing of 7h 43m across the year, set by the city's latitude of 51.19°N. Both are measured from Fajr to Maghrib with the Muslim World League method.
Do these times match my DITIB mosque's timetable?
Closely, most of the year. DITIB publishes Diyanet-calculated times whose angles (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°) match the Muslim World League method used here. But the official tables add small precaution margins. They also interpolate summer Fajr and Isha, because at German latitudes real twilight never ends. Treat your mosque's printed timetable as final, especially for beginning and breaking the fast.
