Prayer Times in Syracuse, New York

Syracuse's times use the ISNA method. That is the standard used by most mosques in New York and across the United States. They are drawn from Syracuse's own coordinates (43.0481°N, 76.1474°W). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Syracuse's prayer times are worked out

From Syracuse, the Qibla is 57° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 10,317 km (6,411 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Syracuse's own coordinates (43.05°N, 76.15°W), not a national average. That is why Syracuse's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Syracuse timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Syracuse lies well west inside its New York time zone. So the sun peaks about 73 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:09 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 17h 11m near June down to 10h 26m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Syracuse 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 Utica, Rochester and Kingston. Each is only a few minutes off Syracuse's clock.
