Prayer Times in Accra

Today in Accra (Sunday, 8 November 2026, 28 Jumada al-Ula 1448 AH), Fajr is at 04:36, sunrise at 05:48, Dhuhr at 11:45, Asr at 15:06, Maghrib at 17:41 and Isha at 18:49 local time (UTC+0).

The times are calculated for 5.6037°, -0.1870° with the Muslim World League (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°) method, the convention most widely used in Ghana, and the Standard (Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali) rule for Asr. Your local mosque may add a few minutes of precaution or use a different method, so its timetable takes precedence.

The qibla from Accra is 64° from true north (ENE), on the great-circle route to the Ka'bah 4,650 km away.

On the June solstice, the longest day of the year in Accra, Fajr is at 04:33, Maghrib at 18:16 and Isha at 19:28; the time from Fajr to Maghrib, the length of a fast, is 13 h 43 min. On the December solstice, Fajr is at 04:50 and Maghrib at 17:53, a fast of only 13 h 03 min.

Ramadan moves about 11 days earlier every year, so over a 33-year cycle the fasting day in Accra ranges between these two lengths. See the Ramadan 2027 timetable for Accra for suhoor and iftar times.
