How prayer times are calculated in Ecuador

Pages for Ecuador use the Muslim World League method: Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon and Isha when the sun is 17° below the horizon. Times are shown in the local time of each city (UTC−5; UTC−6). In the capital Quito, Fajr is about 4:53 AM and Maghrib 6:16 PM around 21 December, while around 23 September Fajr comes at 4:55 AM and Maghrib at 6:10 PM. Daylight there ranges from 12 h 06 min to 12 h 08 min.

Our cities in Ecuador stretch from Puerto Baquerizo Moreno in the west to Nueva Loja in the east, and from San Lorenzo de Esmeraldas in the north to Cariamanga in the south. Because of this spread, the sun reaches its zenith in Nueva Loja about 51 minutes before Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, which is one reason the country uses several time zones. Day length also differs between north and south, especially in summer and winter, so the timetable of Quito cannot replace that of your own city.

Ramadan in Ecuador

During Ramadan 1448 AH (expected around 8 February 2027), the fast in Quito lasts roughly 13 h 19 min at the start of the month and 13 h 16 min at the end, with imsak at 5:03 AM and iftar at 6:32 PM on the first day. Times differ from one city to another, so open your city’s page for the exact imsak and iftar times.

To find your city quickly, type its name in the search box at the top of the page, or browse the regions above. On every page you will find today’s times with a countdown, a monthly timetable you can print and links to nearby cities.
