Each of the five daily prayers in Helsinki today, from dawn (Fajr) and midday (Dhuhr) through the afternoon (Asr) to sunset (Maghrib) and Isha, with tomorrow's time so you can plan ahead.
Fajr in Helsinki today is at 05:55. Tomorrow it is at 05:57 (2 min later).
Dhuhr in Helsinki today is at 12:06. Tomorrow it is at 12:06 (same time).
Asr in Helsinki today is at 13:29. Tomorrow it is at 13:27 (2 min earlier).
Maghrib in Helsinki today is at 15:52. Tomorrow it is at 15:50 (2 min earlier).
Isha in Helsinki today is at 18:13. Tomorrow it is at 18:12 (1 min earlier).
Friday prayer (Jummah) replaces Dhuhr on Fridays. The calculated Dhuhr start in Helsinki this Friday is 12:07; the khutbah and congregation times are set by each masjid, so check with your local mosque.
Tonight's night prayer times and tomorrow morning's voluntary prayer times in Helsinki, worked out from the same Maghrib and Fajr times as the table above.
Voluntary prayer is disliked while the sun is rising (until about 15 minutes after sunrise at 08:16), at its zenith (just before Dhuhr at 12:06) and while it is setting (just before Maghrib at 15:52). 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 Helsinki with the same method as the rest of this page; they are not congregation times.

Across 2026, Fajr in Helsinki moves between 03:10 and 06:50, and Maghrib between 15:12 and 22:50. The longest fasting day, dawn to sunset, is 19h 40m on 19 June; the shortest is 8h 25m on 19 December.
Clocks change on 29 March and 25 October. Prayer times on those days shift by an hour on the clock, not in the sky. Helsinki is above 48° latitude, so in summer twilight never fully ends. Fajr and Isha then use the seventh-of-the-night rule, a standard high latitude adjustment. How times are calculated
Waxing crescent

A Hijri month has 29 or 30 days; its last day depends on the next crescent. Phases are calculated for each evening.

Ramadan timetable for HelsinkiHelsinki is the capital, home to about 660,000 people. Helsinki lies 5.1° west of the 30° 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 Helsinki: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 53° above the horizon in June and only 6° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Helsinki range from just 5h 49m in December to 18h 56m in June, a difference of 13h 7m. Prayer times move a lot through the year: in June Fajr comes very early and Isha very late.
Finland's statistics record religion only for people registered in a community, so Helsinki's Muslim population is not counted directly. Language data give a partial picture. At the end of 2024 Helsinki had 684,018 residents, of whom 139,832, or 20.4%, spoke a mother tongue other than Finnish, Swedish or Sámi, and Russian, Somali, Arabic, English and Estonian were the most common foreign languages. Arabic had 10,998 speakers in Helsinki in 2024, the most of any municipality, against 43,534 nationally, and the city reported Somali and Arabic among the fastest-growing mother tongues that year. Language is not religion, so these figures only indicate origin.
Helsinki is where the Tatar community began. A Helsinki charity society for Muslims was founded in 1915, and the congregation formed in 1925 as the Suomen muhamettilainen seurakunta became the Finnish-Islamic Congregation in 1963. It accepts only Tatars as members and has its main building on Fredrikinkatu; the Finnish Tatar community was estimated at 600 to 700 people in 2020. Tatar soldiers are honoured with a monument at the Helsinki Islamic Cemetery, and a Turkish primary school run by the community in Helsinki closed in 1969. Later arrivals founded other societies: the Islamic Society of Finland in 1987, which has a mosque and Koran school in Helsinki and members who are mainly Arabs plus some Finnish converts; the Helsinki Islamic Center, registered in 1995 and the largest society in 2009 with 1,817 members; and the Islamic Rahma Center, registered in 1998. The same source says another dozen or so societies exist in the Helsinki region, some unregistered. Services are held in Arabic, while most mosques also use English and Finnish.
For prayer times, Helsinki lies at 60.2 degrees north, so this site applies a high-latitude rule for Fajr and Isha in summer. Finland uses Eastern European Time, with clocks forward in March and back in October. On this site's calculation the fast from Fajr to Maghrib in Helsinki lasts about 19 and a half hours on 21 June and 8 and a half hours on 21 December. Each mosque sets its own congregation times.
