Daily and monthly times for your Mississauga date
The calculator opens on Today at this location, which follows Mississauga's clock. A reader in another timezone still gets the Mississauga day. To plan ahead or check a past day, set Local date to any day from to , then select Calculate times.
Each result has six rows: Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha. Sunrise is a solar marker, not a prayer. The other five rows show when each prayer's time begins under the selected settings.
The default point is an approximate Mississauga city centre at 43.589° N, 79.6441° W. It is not the location of a particular mosque or neighbourhood. For your own address, use Use my location or enter coordinates, then confirm the timezone.
Printing a month
- Set Local date to any day in the month you need.
- Check Calculation profile, Asr calculation and Twilight rule. You can also open Calculation details to confirm the settings.
- Open Monthly timetable. It uses the same point, month and settings as the daily result.
- Select Print to open your browser's print dialog. There is no separate download file, but many browsers let you save the printout as a PDF.
Why the starting 13-degree profile can differ from ISNA
Mississauga opens with the settings below. Each one can be changed, and none of them describes what every mosque in the city uses.
Starting calculator settings for Mississauga
| Setting | Starting value |
|---|---|
| Calculation profile | FCNA Canada: Fajr and Isha when the sun is 13 degrees below the horizon |
| Asr calculation | Standard |
| Twilight rule | Angle-based |
| Manual minute adjustments | 0 for all six rows |
| Built into the profile | Dhuhr plus 1 minute |
| Rounding | Nearest minute |
The 13-degree option comes from the Fiqh Council of North America (FCNA). At its 2017 meeting, FCNA made a recommendation, published in 2021, that suggested 13 degrees for Canada and 15 degrees for the USA. It called both figures approximations.
A later FCNA article, dated , discusses the limits of fixed angles. It treats 15 degrees as an approximation and points to seasonal and local observation and to trusted local institutions. Read together, the two sources support 13 degrees as a selectable Canadian starting point. They do not make it a citywide rule for Mississauga.
13 degrees versus ISNA 15 degrees on 21 June 2026
Many apps default to ISNA's 15-degree angles. Before dawn, the sun reaches 15 degrees below the horizon before it reaches 13 degrees. After sunset, the order reverses. So a 15-degree profile gives an earlier Fajr and a later Isha.
Mississauga city centre, 21 June 2026 (UTC−4): two profiles with Standard Asr, Angle-based rule and zero manual adjustments
| Row | FCNA Canada 13° | ISNA 15° | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fajr | 04:06 | 03:47 | ISNA 19 minutes earlier |
| Sunrise | 05:37 | 05:37 | Same |
| Dhuhr | 13:21 | 13:21 | Same |
| Asr | 17:27 | 17:27 | Same |
| Maghrib | 21:04 | 21:04 | Same |
| Isha | 22:35 | 22:54 | ISNA 19 minutes later |
Only Fajr and Isha move, because the profile changes only the twilight angles. The 19-minute gap applies to this date only and changes through the year. Load another date rather than adding a fixed offset to an app's times. For a fuller explanation, see why prayer times differ and calculation methods.
The Twilight rule is set to Angle-based. This rule sets a limit for nights when twilight lasts unusually long. In every dated example on this page, Fajr and Isha are ordinary crossings of the chosen angle, so the rule does not change them. The high-latitude guide explains when such rules apply.
Standard or Hanafi Asr
Asr calculation is a separate choice that changes only the Asr row:
- Standard Asr begins when an object's shadow equals its own length plus the shadow it cast at solar noon.
- Hanafi Asr begins when the shadow equals twice the object's length plus that noon shadow.
Mississauga is too far north for the sun ever to be directly overhead, so there is always some noon shadow, and it is longest in winter.
On 21 June 2026, with the FCNA Canada profile at the city centre, Standard Asr is 17:27 and Hanafi Asr is 18:41. Fajr stays at 04:06 and Isha at 22:35.
The interactive shadow diagram in this section uses a 1-metre object that starts with a 0.25-metre noon shadow. Standard Asr arrives when the total shadow reaches 1.25 metres and Hanafi Asr when it reaches 2.25 metres. Moving the Noon shadow slider changes the noon shadow and both totals together. The diagram illustrates the rule; it is not a measurement of a shadow in Mississauga.

All examples use the Angle-based twilight rule, zero manual minute adjustments and the profile's built-in one-minute Dhuhr adjustment, rounded to the nearest minute. Fajr and Isha are ordinary angle crossings on each date. Load this example sets the calculator to that date and those settings.
Standard and Hanafi Asr shadows
- Standard: noon shadow + 1 height
- 1.25 m
- Hanafi: noon shadow + 2 heights
- 2.25 m
Reading Adhan and Iqama at the mosque you attend
A calculated start and an Iqama time are different things:
- A calculated start is when a prayer's time begins under a chosen method.
- An Iqama (also called Iqamah or Jamaat) is when a particular congregation stands to pray. Each mosque sets its own.
Mosques that publish both often list them side by side. The diagram below uses hypothetical times, a 13:00 start and a 13:20 congregation, to show the gap between them. They are not times from any Mississauga mosque.
One dated comparison: Al-Farooq, 4 November 2026
On , Al-Farooq's own website (935 Eglinton Avenue West) showed separate Adhan and Iqama times. The table below sets them beside this calculator's default result for the Mississauga city centre on the same date.
4 November 2026 only: calculator starts (FCNA Canada 13°, city centre, UTC−5) beside Al-Farooq's published Adhan and Iqama
| Prayer | This calculator | Al-Farooq Adhan | Al-Farooq Iqama |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fajr | 05:49 | 05:38 | 06:00 |
| Dhuhr | 12:03 | 12:02 | 13:00 |
| Isha | 18:15 | 18:26 | 19:30 |
This table illustrates a single day. It is not an attendance guide.
The mosque's Adhan times differ from the calculator by 11 minutes at Fajr and Isha and by 1 minute at Dhuhr. The site does not publish its full method, angles or reference point. Neither the gaps nor the near match tell you which settings it uses.
Changing Calculation profile moves the calculated starts, but no setting reproduces an Iqama, because the congregation decides it. For current times, use the mosque's own page and its monthly timetable.
For Friday prayers, Al-Farooq notes that its Jumuah timings mark the start of the khutbah. Check its current Jumuah programme directly. This calculator does not produce Jumuah or Iqama times.
Other original schedules
- ISNA Canada's 1446/2025 Ramadan calendar for 2200 South Sheridan Way lists dawn, noon and other starts separately from iqama times. It states that its timings follow the Fiqh Council. It is a past calendar, so it does not confirm the current schedule or which preset matches it today.
- Musallah Al Abbas at 3490 Mavis Road publishes Iqamah times on its own page. Read the current version there.
Start time and congregation time
Hypothetical example
Mississauga location and Eastern clock changes
Times are calculated for the selected Mississauga point and shown on the America/Toronto clock for the selected date. Ontario's Time Act, in the consolidation current to 30 October 2026, sets the rules for places east of 90° W:
- Standard time is UTC−5.
- Daylight saving time adds one hour from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November.
The Act includes amendments for permanent time, but they are marked as not yet in force. The calculator therefore applies the seasonal change and does not use a fixed UTC−5 all year.
Mississauga clock on this page's dated examples
| Date | Clock | UTC offset |
|---|---|---|
| Standard time | UTC−5 | |
| Daylight saving time | UTC−4 | |
| Standard time (clocks changed on 1 November 2026) | UTC−5 |
In a month that contains a clock change, such as March, the monthly timetable moves onto the new clock from the day the change takes effect. The clock itself shifts by one hour, and each prayer time also keeps its usual small day-to-day movement with the sun, so rows on either side of the change differ by roughly an hour rather than exactly one. The calculated times stay on Mississauga's clock even if your device uses another timezone.
Toronto and your own point
Toronto shares Mississauga's clock but not its coordinates, so its calculated times belong to a different place. If you are in Toronto, use the Toronto prayer times page or your own point instead of reusing Mississauga's numbers. If you choose another city in the calculator, the point and timezone change, but this page's text and dated examples still describe Mississauga.
Use my location asks for location permission only when you press it. A device point or manually entered coordinates clear the timezone, and you must choose or confirm one before Calculate times. The calculator does not guess it.
To get back to the defaults, you have two options:
- Use Mississauga centre again restores the Mississauga point and zone and keeps any date and settings you chose.
- Reset restores Mississauga's defaults and Today, and clears any Ramadan timetable.
A Ramadan timetable and Qibla for your point
The Ramadan timetable lists a Fajr and Maghrib pair for each day, using the selected point and settings. It does not announce when Ramadan begins. To create one:
- Enter First fasting day: the Gregorian date of the first daytime fast announced by the community you follow, not the evening before it.
- Choose Length of Ramadan: 29 or 30 days.
- Select Show timetable.
You can then share or print the timetable:
- Copy timetable link copies a web address that carries the date range and settings, not the table cells. For a listed city such as Mississauga, the link points to the city centre. For a device or manually entered point, it also includes that point's coordinates and timezone, so share it only with people you are happy to give that location. Either link is a snapshot, not live tracking.
- Print timetable opens your browser's print dialog, which may offer to save the timetable as a PDF.
If your mosque publishes its own suhoor, iftar or congregation times, use its calendar for those. The Hijri calendar is useful background, but the first fasting day you enter should be the one your community announces.
Qibla direction
Find Qibla uses the calculator's current point, so after you set your own location it gives the direction from there. The Mississauga Qibla guide covers the city itself. For other places, start from the prayer times hub.
