Prayer times in Malta

Find today’s prayer times in Malta: Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha for 63 cities, each calculated for its own coordinates. Malta is in Europe and uses a single time zone (UTC+1, UTC+2 in summer), so the time of the adhan changes from city to city. We use the Muslim World League method, which you can change in the settings of any page.

Prayer times by region in Malta

Our pages in Malta are organised in 63 regions. Open your region, then your city: every page has its own coordinates, which is why the times change by a few minutes from one place to the next, east to west and north to south.

How prayer times are calculated in Malta

Times for Malta 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 local time (UTC+1, UTC+2 in summer). In the capital Valletta, Fajr is about 3:56 AM and Maghrib 8:22 PM around 21 June, while around 21 December Fajr comes at 5:36 AM and Maghrib at 4:52 PM. Daylight there ranges from 9 h 43 min to 14 h 36 min.

Our cities in Malta stretch from Saint Lawrence in the west to Marsaskala in the east, and from Zebbug in the north to Birżebbuġa in the south. With such a distance, the sun reaches its zenith in Marsaskala about 1 minute before Saint Lawrence, even though the clock is the same everywhere. Day length also varies between north and south, especially in summer and winter, so the timetable of Valletta is no substitute for that of your own city.
