About prayer times in Jersey City
Jersey City lies at 40.72° N, 74.04° W in New Jersey. 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 11:41 AM and 1:08 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 Jersey City. In 2026, Fajr falls as early as 3:45 AM (12 June) and as late as 6:09 AM (31 October); Maghrib swings from 4:29 PM to 8:32 PM, and Isha can be as late as 10:11 PM. The day (sunrise to sunset) grows from about 9h 15m to 15h 06m.
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 Jersey City, the first fast would run from Fajr at 5:42 AM to Maghrib at 5:22 PM (about 11h 40m), and by the last day from 5:05 AM to 5:55 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 Jersey City usually announce their own congregation (jama'ah) times, which are set some minutes after the start times shown here.
