Prayer Times in Nuremberg, Germany

Nuremberg prayer times explained

Fajr 5:09 am, Maghrib 4:57 pm, Isha 6:27 pm — that is the shape of today in Nuremberg. Each of them moves slightly from one day to the next; the page rebuilds daily, so what you see is current.

Lining up with the Kaaba

From this city the direction is south-east, or 131° if you prefer the number. Makkah is around 4,013 kilometres (2,494 miles) away in a straight line.

Through the year

There is a caveat to the summer timetable in Nuremberg. For several weeks around the solstice the sun does not dip deep enough for a true Fajr or Isha, and the calculated values become estimates. Local scholarly guidance takes over in that period.

Ramadan timings

Suhoor closes at 5:09 am in Nuremberg, with iftar at 4:57 pm. Roughly 11 hours and 48 minutes, going by today's figures. The full month is listed below if you want to see where the fast is heading.

Nuremberg today, prayer by prayer

The day's first prayer, Fajr, falls at 5:09 am. You have until 7:01 am, when the sun comes up. Next is Dhuhr at 11:59 am, then Asr in the afternoon at 3:11 pm. The sun goes down at Maghrib, 4:57 pm, and the day ends with Isha at 6:27 pm. That gives Nuremberg roughly 9 hours and 56 minutes of daylight today.

The calculation behind them

The calculation used here is Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah. Methods differ mainly over Fajr and Isha, because each authority settles on a slightly different angle of the sun below the horizon — a few minutes either way is normal. For Asr this page uses the Hanafi position — later in the day than the majority view. Where your local mosque differs, follow the mosque — that is the timetable the congregation keeps.
