Qibla direction from Boston

NESW

60.4° from true north (east-northeast, ENE)

Distance to the Kaaba in Makkah: 10,002 km (6,215 miles) along the great-circle route, which is the shortest path over the Earth's surface and the basis of the Qibla bearing.

A phone compass points to magnetic north, which can differ from true north by several degrees depending on where you are. Use our Qibla direction finder for a live compass.

About prayer times in Boston

Boston lies at 42.36° N, 71.06° W in Massachusetts. Clocks there follow the America/New York time zone and change for daylight saving: Eastern Standard Time (UTC-5) in winter and Eastern Daylight Time (UTC-4) in summer. Every prayer time on the clock jumps by an hour on the changeover dates, and the timetable above already includes this. Dhuhr, which begins just after the sun passes its highest point, stays between 11:29 AM and 12:56 PM on the clock all year.

The ISNA (Islamic Society of North America) method with 15° angles is the long-standing default for North American mosques, although some communities use the Moonsighting Committee method instead. With this method Fajr starts when the sun is 15° below the horizon before dawn, and Isha when it reaches 15° after sunset. If your mosque follows a different convention, change the method or the Asr setting above and every table on this page will update.

The seasons make a big difference in Boston. In 2026, Fajr falls as early as 3:22 AM (12 June) and as late as 5:58 AM (31 October); Maghrib swings from 4:11 PM to 8:25 PM, and Isha can be as late as 10:10 PM. The day (sunrise to sunset) grows from about 9h 04m to 15h 17m.

Ramadan 1448 AH: on the Umm al-Qura calendar, Ramadan is expected to run from about 8 February to 8 March 2027; the actual dates depend on moon sighting and may differ by a day in the United States. In Boston, the first fast would run from Fajr at 5:31 AM to Maghrib at 5:07 PM (about 11h 36m), and by the last day from 4:52 AM to 5:42 PM (about 12h 50m). See the Ramadan guide for more.

The times on this page are the moments each prayer's time begins. On Fridays, Jumu'ah is prayed in congregation in place of Dhuhr. Mosques in Boston usually announce their own congregation (jama'ah) times, which are set some minutes after the start times shown here.

Prayer times in Boston: common questions

Which calculation method is used for prayer times in Boston?

By default this page uses the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) method (Fajr at 15°, Isha at 15°) with the standard (Shafi, Maliki and Hanbali) Asr time. The ISNA (Islamic Society of North America) method with 15° angles is the long-standing default for North American mosques, although some communities use the Moonsighting Committee method instead. You can change both settings at the top of the page.

What is the Qibla direction from Boston?

From Boston, the Qibla is 60.4° clockwise from true north, roughly east-northeast. The Kaaba in Makkah is about 10,002 km (6,215 miles) away along the shortest route over the Earth's surface.

How long is the Ramadan fast in Boston in 2027?

Ramadan 1448 AH is expected to begin on or around 8 February 2027 according to the Umm al-Qura calendar (the actual start depends on moon sighting and may differ by a day). In Boston, the fast from Fajr to Maghrib would last about 11h 36m on the first day and about 12h 50m by the last day.

Why might these times differ from my local mosque in Boston?

Mosques may use a different calculation method, a different Asr convention, their own safety margins of a few minutes, or local observation. The times here are the astronomical start times; congregation (jama'ah) times are usually set later by each mosque.
