Begins = the start of each prayer window (Muslim World League (MWL), Rochdale, England). Each mosque sets its own iqamah (congregation) time — set by the mosque. Friday, 25th September 2026.

High-latitude note: at Rochdale's northern latitude the sun stays too high for true dawn and nightfall on these summer dates, so Fajr and Isha are estimated using the “one-seventh of the night” method. Always confirm with your local mosque.

How are Rochdale prayer times calculated?

Rochdale times are calculated for the city’s coordinates (53.610°N, 2.156°W) with the Muslim World League (MWL) method: Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon and Isha at 17°. When summer twilight never gets that dark, Fajr and Isha use a one-seventh-of-the-night limit. Many Rochdale mosques publish their own timetable, which can differ — most often for Fajr and Isha, where angles vary. You can switch method and Asr rule in the settings on the table above.

Asr: today’s Standard (Shafi’i, Maliki, Hanbali) Asr begins at 16:11 and Hanafi Asr at 17:00. 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.
