Prayer times by region in Romania

Our pages in Romania are organised in 42 regions. Choose your region, then your city: each page has its own coordinates, which is why the times change by a few minutes from one place to the next, from east to west and from north to south.

How prayer times are calculated in Romania

Times for Romania 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+2, UTC+3 in summer). In the capital Bucharest, Fajr is around 3:02 AM and Maghrib 9:04 PM around 21 June, whereas around 21 December Fajr comes at 6:03 AM and Maghrib at 4:39 PM. Daylight there ranges from 8 h 50 min to 15 h 33 min.

Our cities in Romania stretch from Timișoara in the west to Tulcea in the east, and from Dorohoi in the north to Zimnicea in the south. With such a distance, the sun reaches its zenith in Tulcea about 30 minutes before Timișoara, even though the clock is the same everywhere. Day length also varies between north and south, most of all in summer and winter, so the timetable of Bucharest cannot replace that of your own city.

Qibla direction in Romania

NSEW

From Bucharest, the Qibla is at 149.3° from true north, towards the south-east, and the Kaaba is 2,852 km away. The direction changes slightly as you move across Romania, which is why each city page shows its own Qibla angle with a compass drawing.

Ramadan in Romania

Times differ from one city to another, so open your city’s page for the exact imsak and iftar times.
