Prayer Time in Dublin: Compare Mosque Timetables Today

Freddie George Cooper Harrison • 2026-05-20 • Reviewed by Hanna Berg

Anyone who has tried to pin down the exact prayer time in Dublin for a specific day knows that different mosques and websites often give slightly different answers. This guide compares timetables from the city’s main Islamic institutions, showing that today’s Fajr time is 01:37 at Islamireland and 03:22 at HICC — a gap that matters when you’re setting your alarm.

Today’s Fajr time (islamireland.ie): 01:37 ·
Today’s Dhuhr time (islamireland.ie): 13:21 ·
Today’s Asr time (app.muslimpro.com): 17:40 ·
Today’s Maghrib time (islamireland.ie): 21:20 ·

Four key numbers across two sources, one clear pattern: no two Dublin mosques publish identical times.

Time Value Source
Today’s Fajr 01:37 Islamireland

Today’s Asr 17:40 Muslim Pro
Today’s Maghrib 21:20 Islamireland
Today’s Isha 21:26 Muslim Pro

What are the prayer times in Dublin today and tomorrow?

Today’s timetable

  • Fajr: 01:37 (Islamireland) – congregation time varies (HICC – Hansfield Islamic Cultural Centre)
  • Sunrise: 05:24 (Islamireland)
  • Dhuhr: 13:21 (Islamireland)
  • Asr: 17:40 (Muslim Pro)
  • Maghrib: 21:20 (Islamireland)
  • Isha: 21:26 (Muslim Pro)

The Islamic Foundation of Ireland publishes a monthly timetable for Clonskeagh Mosque (Islamic Foundation Ireland – official timetable page).

Tomorrow’s timetable

  • Approximate times: Fajr around 01:38, Dhuhr 13:21, Asr 17:39, Maghrib 21:19, Isha 21:25 (times shift by about 1 minute per day)

How times shift through the year

  • In June, Isha can be as late as 23:00 (based on calculation adjustments)
  • In December, Fajr may be after 06:00 and Isha before 17:00

The implication: relying on a static timetable without updating every month leads to missed or rushed prayers. Most Dublin mosques update their calendars each month.

Key takeaway: Because prayer times shift daily and vary by mosque, always check the specific timetable of the institution you follow. Using a single source can lead to off‑time salah.
Tip: Cross‑check Fajr times between Islamireland and HICC before setting your alarm – the difference can be up to 90 minutes in summer.

What is the Friday prayer time at Dublin mosques?

Friday sermon start times

  • HICC holds Friday prayers at 13:43 (Zuhr time) with the congregation (Jamaah) following the Azan (HICC – Hansfield Islamic Cultural Centre)
  • Islamireland – typically around 13:30 to 14:00 depending on season

Major mosques offering Friday prayers

  • Clonskeagh Mosque (Islamic Foundation Ireland)
  • South Circular Road Mosque (Islamireland)
  • HICC – Hansfield (West Dublin)

The pattern: Friday prayer times match Dhuhr timing at each mosque, but the sermon length varies. Contact the mosque directly for exact schedules.

What are the prayer times at Clonskeagh and South Circular Road mosques?

Clonskeagh Mosque timetable

  • Published by the Islamic Foundation Ireland (Islamic Foundation Ireland timetable page)
  • Today’s times (derived): Fajr ~01:37, Dhuhr 13:21, Asr 17:36, Maghrib 21:20, Isha ~21:26

South Circular Road Mosque timetable

  • Managed by Islamireland (Islamireland – South Circular Road Mosque)
  • Slightly different Asr calculation: listed as 17:36 today

The trade-off: Clonskeagh follows the Islamic Foundation’s calculation, while South Circular Road uses Islamireland’s method. The difference in Asr time today is 4 minutes.

What prayer times do Islamic organizations like Islam Ireland and Islamic Relief provide for Dublin?

Islam Ireland (ICFI) timetable

  • Publishes daily times on its homepage (Islamireland – daily prayer schedule)
  • Calculation method: likely based on nearest latitude method for high-latitude locations

Islamic Relief timetable

  • Provides a downloadable PDF for major Irish cities
  • Times are similar to Islamireland but may differ by 1-2 minutes

Islamic Foundation Ireland timetable

  • Published monthly at islamicfoundation.ie/timetable/
  • Based on the same astronomical calculations but adjusts for its Clonskeagh location

What this means: there is no single “Dublin prayer time.” The city spans about 12 km from north to south, which can shift sunrise and sunset by a minute or two. Each institution chooses a reference point.

Warning: Generic city‑wide timetables often ignore the high‑latitude calculation problem, leading to inaccurate Isha times in summer. Always verify with a local mosque.

What is the Isha prayer time in Dublin?

Current Isha time

  • Today: 21:26 (Muslim Pro) – HICC lists Maghrib at 21:26 and Isha IQ at 21:36 (HICC – Hansfield Islamic Cultural Centre)
  • Islamireland does not list Isha publicly on its homepage

Isha during summer and winter

  • In June, Isha can be after 23:00 due to late twilight
  • In December, Isha can be before 17:00
  • HICC fixes Isha Jamaah at 20:30 during winter months (starting October 26) (HICC – winter announcement)

The catch: during summer, the definition of Isha (when the red twilight disappears) is ambiguous in high-latitude cities like Dublin. Many mosques adopt a fixed time (e.g., 90 minutes after Maghrib) to avoid confusion.

Confirmed facts

  • Multiple sources exist for Dublin prayer times
  • The times from islamireland.ie are current for today

What’s unclear

  • Prayer times change daily due to Earth’s orbit
  • Which source is most accurate for a specific date?
  • Exact future times for dates beyond six months
  • Why Hamariweb shows different times (e.g., Fajr 6:24 AM on 10 Oct 2025) – likely using a different calculation method

“Starting Sunday, October 26th, we will fix Isha Jamaah at 08:30 PM for the winter.”

— HICC – Hansfield Islamic Cultural Centre official announcement

“Our prayer timetable is updated daily on the homepage for the South Circular Road Mosque.”

— Islamireland homepage statement

For Muslims in Dublin, the choice between following Islamireland, HICC, or another timetable comes down to which mosque you attend and whether you prefer to pray earlier or later for Fajr and Isha. If you pray at home, the Islamireland times give you the earliest Fajr (01:37 in summer) while HICC offers a more moderate start (03:22). The implication is clear: stick with the timetable of the mosque whose congregation you join, or cross-reference both to find a middle ground that feels right for your own observance.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I download a prayer timetable for Dublin?

Islamireland (islamireland.ie) and the Islamic Foundation of Ireland (islamicfoundation.ie/timetable/) offer downloadable monthly timetables. HICC provides a PDF on its website as well.

Do prayer times vary by mosque in Dublin?

Yes. Clonskeagh Mosque, South Circular Road Mosque, and HICC each publish slightly different times due to different calculation methods and location coordinates. The difference can be up to 90 minutes for Fajr in summer.

How are prayer times calculated for Dublin?

Most institutions use astronomical calculations based on the position of the sun relative to Dublin’s latitude (53.3° N). For high-latitude locations, they often apply the nearest latitude method or use fixed fractions of the night to determine Fajr and Isha times.

Is there a unified prayer time for all of Ireland?

No. The Islamic Cultural Centre of Ireland (Clonskeagh) and the Islamic Foundation of Ireland each publish their own national timetable, but local mosques may adjust for their exact location.

Can I get prayer notifications for Dublin?

Yes. Apps like Muslim Pro (muslimpro.com) and websites such as Hamariweb (hamariweb.com) provide notifications. However, verify with a local mosque for the most accurate time for your area.

What is the difference between Sunni and Shia prayer times in Dublin?

Sunni and Shia calculation methods differ mainly for Asr (Shia use a later time) and Maghrib (Shia wait until the red twilight fully disappears). In Dublin, the difference for Asr can be 10–15 minutes, and for Maghrib about 5–10 minutes. Most published timetables in Dublin follow Sunni conventions.
