How prayer times are calculated in Peru

Times for Peru 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−5). In the capital Lima, Fajr is around 4:22 AM and Maghrib 6:31 PM around 21 December, whereas around 21 June Fajr comes at 5:12 AM and Maghrib at 5:52 PM. Daylight there ranges from 11 h 25 min to 12 h 50 min.

Our cities in Peru stretch from Talara in the west to Puerto Maldonado in the east, and from Zarumilla in the north to Tacna in the south. Because of this spread, the sun reaches its zenith in Puerto Maldonado about 48 minutes before Talara, 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 Lima cannot replace that of your own city.

Ramadan in Peru

During Ramadan 1448 AH (expected around 8 February 2027), the fast in Lima lasts about 13 h 47 min at the start of the month and 13 h 25 min at the end, with imsak at 4:42 AM and iftar at 6:39 PM on the first day. These times change 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.
