Prayer Times in Dammam

Today in Dammam (Sunday, 8 November 2026, 28 Jumada al-Ula 1448 AH), Fajr is at 04:32, sunrise at 05:53, Dhuhr at 11:23, Asr at 14:30, Maghrib at 16:53 and Isha at 18:23 local time (UTC+3).

The times are calculated for 26.4207°, 50.0888° with the Umm al-Qura University, Makkah method, the convention most widely used in Saudi Arabia, and the Standard (Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali) rule for Asr. Isha is 90 minutes after Maghrib, and 120 minutes during Ramadan. Your local mosque may add a few minutes of precaution or use a different method, so its timetable takes precedence.

The qibla from Dammam is 244° from true north (WSW), on the great-circle route to the Ka'bah 1,181 km away. Today at 15:50 the sun stands exactly in the direction of the qibla, so shadows point directly away from it, an easy way to check the direction without a compass.

On the June solstice, the longest day of the year in Dammam, Fajr is at 03:13, Maghrib at 18:35 and Isha at 20:05; the time from Fajr to Maghrib, the length of a fast, is 15 h 22 min. On the December solstice, Fajr is at 04:58 and Maghrib at 16:52, a fast of only 11 h 54 min.

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