Tahajjud time, Islamic midnight and Duha in Melbourne

Tonight's night prayer times and tomorrow morning's voluntary prayer times in Melbourne, worked out from the same Maghrib and Fajr times as the table above.

Islamic midnight
00:12Halfway between Maghrib and Fajr
Last third of the night (Tahajjud)
01:33Until Fajr at 04:15
Ishraq
06:15About 15 minutes after sunrise (06:00)
Duha
06:15 – 13:06From Ishraq until Dhuhr (13:06)

Voluntary prayer is disliked while the sun is rising (until about 15 minutes after sunrise at 06:00), at its zenith (just before Dhuhr at 13:06) and while it is setting (just before Maghrib at 20:10). The schools differ in the details, for example about the time after Asr and about make-up prayers, so ask your own scholar if you are unsure.

The night is counted from Maghrib to the next Fajr. Times are calculated for Melbourne with the same method as the rest of this page; they are not congregation times.

Melbourne, the Sun and the clock

Melbourne is the main city of Victoria, home to about 5,400,000 people. Melbourne lies 5° west of the 150° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 20 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:20, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests. In summer, when the clocks go forward an hour, that moment moves to around 13:20.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Melbourne: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 76° above the horizon in December and only 29° in June, so noon shadows are much longer in June. Days in Melbourne range from 9h 32m in June to 14h 47m in December, a difference of 5h 15m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. As Melbourne is in the southern hemisphere, its longest days come in December and January, and so do its longest fasts whenever Ramadan falls then.

The Muslim community in Melbourne

Greater Melbourne had 258,250 people reporting Islam at the 2021 census, 5.3% of its population, according to Wikipedia's article on Islam in Australia. The article also describes which origin groups predominate in different suburbs: Lebanese and Turkish in Thomastown, Broadmeadows and Coolaroo, Turkish in Dallas, Lebanese and Pakistani in Fawkner, Turkish and Iraqi in Roxburgh Park, Indian and Iraqi in Craigieburn, and Afghan and Albanian in Dandenong, with Afghans also in Cranbourne North. The history goes back before the modern communities: it says eight Muslim and Hindu camel handlers arrived in Melbourne in 1860 with the Burke and Wills expedition, and that 70 Muslims held Eid prayers in Albert Park on 23 July 1884.

The article calls the Albanian mosque in Carlton North, built in 1969, Melbourne's first. The Preston Mosque (Umar bin Al-Khattab Mosque), run by the Islamic Society of Victoria, was built between 1975 and 1976, mostly with funds from Bosnian, Arab, Indian and Pakistani immigrants, and in 2009 Darebin City Council signed an agreement with the society that Wikipedia describes as the first of its kind in Australia between a mosque and a council. In Newport, the Islamic Society of Newport began looking for a site in 1995 and bought land at 23-31 Blenheim Road in 2005. The National Gallery of Victoria's essay on the Australian Islamic Centre says it was designed by Glenn Murcutt together with Hakan Elevli and built from 2006 to 2016.

For prayer times, Melbourne lies at 37.8 degrees south, so the seasons are reversed from Europe and North America. It keeps Australian Eastern Standard Time (UTC+10) and moves to daylight time (UTC+11) in summer. On this site's calculation the fast from Fajr to Maghrib in Melbourne lasts about 11 hours on 21 June and 16 and a half hours on 21 December. Communities differ on how the start of Ramadan and Eid is decided, and each mosque sets its own congregation times.
