How prayer times in Abuja are calculated
Times are calculated from the sun's position at Abuja's latitude and longitude using the Muslim World League method (Fajr at 18° below the horizon, Isha at 17°), the most common standard for Nigeria. Asr is shown for the standard (Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali) school by default, and the monthly tables list both Asr times. Dhuhr is set one minute after solar noon and prayer times are rounded up to the next minute as a precaution, while sunrise is rounded down. Mosques in Nigeria sometimes publish their own timetables, which can differ by a few minutes; where your mosque has one, follow it. See our methodology for details.
