How prayer times vary across Sweden
On Thursday, 29 October 2026, Fajr begins earliest in Stockholm (4:51 AM) and latest in Gothenburg (5:11 AM), a spread of 20 minutes on the clock. Maghrib, when the fast is opened in Ramadan, runs from 4:03 PM in Stockholm to 4:35 PM in Malmö. All of these cities share one time zone, so the differences come only from where each city lies.
Calculation method used in Sweden
The Muslim World League angles are used, combined with a high-latitude rule because twilight never fully ends during Swedish summer nights.
- Method: Muslim World League, with Fajr at 18° and Isha at 17°.
- Asr: Standard (Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali). Asr begins when an object's shadow equals its length (plus its noon shadow).
- How every method works is explained on our sources and methods page.
