How prayer times are calculated in Malaysia

Pages for Malaysia use the JAKIM, Malaysia method: Fajr when the sun is 20° below the horizon and Isha when the sun is 18° below the horizon. Times are shown in the local time of each city (UTC+8). In the capital Kuala Lumpur, Fajr is around 5:41 AM and Maghrib 7:24 PM around 21 June, whereas around 21 December Fajr comes at 5:49 AM and Maghrib at 7:09 PM. Daylight there ranges from 11 h 57 min to 12 h 18 min.

Our cities in Malaysia stretch from Pantai Cenang in the west to Semporna in the east, and from Kudat in the north to Tebedu in the south. With such a distance, the sun reaches its zenith in Semporna about 76 minutes before Pantai Cenang, which is one reason the country uses several time zones. Day length also differs between north and south, most of all in summer and winter, so the timetable of Kuala Lumpur cannot replace that of your own city.

Ramadan in Malaysia

During Ramadan 1448 AH (expected on 8 February 2027), the fast in Kuala Lumpur lasts roughly 13 h 20 min at the start of the month and 13 h 22 min at the end, with imsak at 5:58 AM and iftar at 7:27 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 reach your city quickly, type its name in the search box at the top of the page, or go through the regions above. On every page you will find today’s times with a countdown, a monthly timetable ready to print and links to nearby cities.
