Tahajjud time, Islamic midnight and Duha in Ottawa
Tonight's night prayer times and tomorrow morning's voluntary prayer times in Ottawa, worked out from the same Maghrib and Fajr times as the table above.
- Islamic midnight
- 23:05Halfway between Maghrib and Fajr
- Last third of the night (Tahajjud)
- 01:15Until Fajr at 05:36
- Ishraq
- 07:15About 15 minutes after sunrise (07:00)
- Duha
- 07:15 – 11:48From Ishraq until Dhuhr (11:48)
Voluntary prayer is disliked while the sun is rising (until about 15 minutes after sunrise at 07:00), at its zenith (just before Dhuhr at 11:48) and while it is setting (just before Maghrib at 16:34). 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 Ottawa with the same method as the rest of this page; they are not congregation times.

Ramadan timetable for OttawaOttawa, the Sun and the clock
Ottawa is the capital, home to about 1,000,000 people. Ottawa lies almost on the 75° W meridian that its time zone is based on, so the Sun is highest close to 12:00 on the clock, around 12:03 on average. Dhuhr begins just after that moment. In summer, when the clocks go forward an hour, that moment moves to around 13:03.
The Sun never stands straight overhead in Ottawa: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 68° above the horizon in June and only 21° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Ottawa range from just 8h 43m in December to 15h 40m in June, a difference of 6h 57m. Prayer times move a lot through the year: in June Fajr comes very early and Isha very late.
The Muslim community in Ottawa
In the Ottawa-Gatineau metropolitan area, which crosses the provincial border, the 2021 census counted 114,780 Muslims, 7.84% of the population. The earlier figures on Wikipedia's page on the demographics of Ottawa are 65,880 (5.42%) for 2011 and 41,725 (3.97%) for 2001, so the number almost tripled in twenty years. Wikipedia's article on Islam in Canada says the local community includes Lebanese, Turkish, Bosniak, Albanian, South Asian and Somali Muslims. A local history published by Iqra.ca puts the first Muslim family in Ottawa in 1903, the Wahad family from Kfarmishki in the Lebanese-Syrian region, and says Muslims numbered under 500 in the early 1960s.
The same history traces the Ottawa Mosque to 1962, when four Muslims proposed the Ottawa Muslim Association to build one. The association was incorporated in 1965 and raised 25,000 dollars in 1967 for a plot beside Northwestern United Church. The Toronto architect Anwar Asad designed a building with a dome and a 115 foot minaret at 251 Northwestern Avenue. Ground was broken in September 1973, and prayers began in the basement on 26 March 1975, before the upper level was completed in February 1977. The cost passed 500,000 dollars, about half of it from Muslim-majority countries including Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran and Malaysia, and the Women's Auxiliary raised money through teas and cooking lessons. The article says the mosque cannot hold everyone who wants to pray, which is why more mosques have opened across the region, and it also gives a rounder estimate of about 140,000 Muslims, above the census count. The South Nepean Muslim Community mosque is one of those listed on Wikipedia.
For prayer times, Ottawa lies at 45.4 degrees north in the Eastern time zone, on UTC-5 in winter and UTC-4 (Eastern Daylight Time) in summer. On this site's calculation the fast from Fajr to Maghrib in Ottawa lasts about 17 and a half hours on 21 June and 10 hours on 21 December. Communities differ on how the start of Ramadan and Eid is decided, and each mosque sets its own congregation times.
