Today in Dubai: Fajr 4:35 AM, sunrise 5:57 AM, Dhuhr 12:21 PM, Asr 3:50 PM, Maghrib 6:45 PM and Isha 8:15 PM. All times are for Dubai's own coordinates in the Asia/Dubai timezone, calculated by the Umm al-Qura University, Makkah method.
Fajr begins at 4:35 AM in Dubai today and ends at sunrise, 5:57 AM. During Ramadan, sehri ends at 4:32 AM — a few minutes before Fajr, as printed calendars have it.
Dhuhr begins at 12:21 PM in Dubai today, once the sun has passed its highest point, and lasts until Asr at 3:50 PM.
Asr begins at 3:50 PM in Dubai today and lasts until Maghrib at 6:45 PM. This page uses the Standard (Shafi‘i, Maliki, Hanbali) position; the other reckoning gives a different time — see the question below.
Maghrib begins at 6:45 PM in Dubai today, at sunset, and lasts until Isha at 8:15 PM. In Ramadan this is also when the fast is broken.
Isha begins at 8:15 PM in Dubai today. Islamic midnight falls at 12:21 AM, and the preferred time for Isha ends there.
The last third of the night in Dubai begins at 1:19 AM tonight and runs until Fajr at 4:35 AM, which is the most virtuous time for Tahajjud. Islamic midnight is 12:21 AM.
Sehri ends at 4:32 AM in Dubai and iftar is at 6:45 PM. Sehri ends when Fajr begins; the time shown subtracts a few minutes as a precaution, which is the common practice in printed Ramadan calendars.
Voluntary prayer is withheld during three short windows in Dubai today: While the sun rises (5:57 AM – 6:12 AM); When the sun is at its highest (12:11 PM – 12:21 PM); While the sun sets (6:30 PM – 6:45 PM). Obligatory prayers being made up are a separate question — ask a scholar.
In Dubai today, Asr begins at 3:50 PM by the standard position (Shafi‘i, Maliki, Hanbali) and at 4:55 PM by the Hanafi position. The standard position starts Asr when an object's shadow equals its own length; the Hanafi position waits until twice its length. Both are transmitted positions, and the gap between them changes with the season and the latitude.
These times use the Umm al-Qura University, Makkah method with the Standard (Shafi‘i, Maliki, Hanbali) position for Asr. The method sets the sun-depression angles for Fajr and Isha; different methods can differ by several minutes, which is why the one in use is named on the page rather than left implicit.
They are computed astronomically from Dubai's coordinates and the Asia/Dubai timezone, and are typically within a minute or two of a local mosque timetable. Where they differ, your mosque is the one to follow — it may apply a local precaution this calculation does not.
The Qibla from Dubai is 259.1° measured clockwise from true north, which is towards the west. Compass apps show magnetic north, which differs from true north by a few degrees in most places.
