About Prayer Times in Taunton

Prayer times in Taunton are calculated from astronomical data for the city's location using the Muslim World League (MWL) method — Fajr at 18° below the horizon and Isha at 17°, the standard recommended by major UK Islamic organisations including the Muslim Council of Britain.

Because Taunton is at a northern UK latitude, prayer times vary substantially by season. In summer, Fajr can begin as early as 2:30–3:00 AM and Maghrib falls after 9:00 PM — making the Ramadan fasting day one of the longest in the world. In winter, all five prayers fall within a much shorter day: Fajr around 6:30–7:00 AM and Maghrib around 3:30–4:00 PM, with Dhuhr, Asr and Isha all within a few hours.

The times shown above are astronomical prayer start times — when each prayer window opens. Your local mosque's iqamah (congregational prayer) times are typically 15–30 minutes later and are set independently by each mosque. Always confirm iqamah times directly with your mosque.
