Montréal Prayer Times

Prayer Times in Montréal, Canada

Prayer times in Montréal are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (45.51°N). We use the ISNA method, the one followed across Canada. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.

Montréal's times use the ISNA method. That is the standard used by most mosques in Canada and across the United States. They are drawn from Montréal's own coordinates (45.5088°N, 73.5878°W). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Montréal's prayer times are worked out

From Montréal, the Qibla is 59° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 9,999 km (6,213 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Montréal's own coordinates (45.51°N, 73.59°W), not a national average. That is why Montréal's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Montréal timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Montréal lies well west inside its Toronto time zone. So the sun peaks about 63 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:59 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 17h 41m near June down to 10h 13m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Montréal come from the Islamic Society of North America. The ISNA method sets Fajr when the sun is 15° below the horizon, and Isha at 15°. 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 Ville-Marie, Le Plateau-Mont-Royal and Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie. Each is only a few minutes off Montréal's clock.
