use the London Unified Prayer Timetable,
not generic astronomical times. Here is how today's times (Friday, 25th September 2026) compare with the
Muslim World League (MWL) method, which can be 10–60 minutes out at London's latitude in summer.

London Unified is the default here because it is what
local mosques follow. The astronomical column is shown for comparison only.
Why do London prayer times differ?
London times follow the London Unified Prayer Timetable, adopted in 2011 by
Hizbul Ulama UK and the Central Moon Sighting Committee of Great Britain and used by mosques across London and
the M25, including East London Mosque and London Central Mosque. Its Fajr and Isha come from dawn and twilight
observations rather than a fixed astronomical angle, which is why generic apps can differ —

Our copy of the published timetable is taken from
londonsalahtimes.com
and checked against East London Mosque’s timetable.
Asr: today’s Standard (Shafi’i, Maliki, Hanbali) Asr begins at
16:07 and Hanafi Asr at
16:56. The Hanafi rule waits until an
object’s shadow is twice its length, so it is always later.
Start times, not congregation times: the tables show when each prayer
window opens. Each mosque sets its own iqamah (jama’ah) and Jummah times, and there is no fixed gap between the
two — check your mosque’s timetable. Our methods and sources.

Muslim community in London
London has the largest Muslim population of any city in the UK — over one million Muslims call the capital home, making it one of the most significant centres of Islamic life in the Western world. Prayer times in London are observed daily across more than 400 mosques, Islamic centres and musallas spanning every borough. Neighbourhoods such as Whitechapel, Tooting, Wembley, Walthamstow, Brent and Lewisham are known for their vibrant Islamic culture, Friday Jumu'ah congregations, charity work and family-friendly Iftars during Ramadan. The city's Muslim roots stretch back over 200 years, from the earliest Yemeni and Somali sailors who settled in east London to the Bangladeshi, Pakistani, Indian, Arab and West African communities that have shaped modern Muslim London. London Central Mosque in Regent's Park, East London Mosque in Whitechapel, and hundreds of local masajid serve the spiritual, educational and welfare needs of Muslims across the capital every day.
The janazah (funeral) prayer is usually held straight after one of the daily congregational prayers, often
Dhuhr or Asr. If you are arranging a Muslim funeral in London,
