Tahajjud time, Islamic midnight and Duha in Riyadh
Tonight's night prayer times and tomorrow morning's voluntary prayer times in Riyadh, worked out from the same Maghrib and Fajr times as the table above.
- Islamic midnight
- 22:57Halfway between Maghrib and Fajr
- Last third of the night (Tahajjud)
- 00:54Until Fajr at 04:48
- Ishraq
- 06:23About 15 minutes after sunrise (06:08)
- Duha
- 06:23 – 11:38From Ishraq until Dhuhr (11:38)
Voluntary prayer is disliked while the sun is rising (until about 15 minutes after sunrise at 06:08), at its zenith (just before Dhuhr at 11:38) and while it is setting (just before Maghrib at 17:06). 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 Riyadh with the same method as the rest of this page; they are not congregation times.

Ramadan timetable for RiyadhRiyadh, the Sun and the clock
Riyadh is the capital, home to about 4,200,000 people. Riyadh lies 1.7° east of the 45° E meridian that its time zone is based on, so the Sun is highest about 7 minutes before 12:00 on average, around 11:53, and Dhuhr comes earlier than the clock suggests.
The Sun never stands straight overhead in Riyadh: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 89° above the horizon in June and only 42° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Riyadh range from 10h 36m in December to 13h 40m in June, a difference of 3h 4m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them.
The Muslim community in Riyadh
Riyadh had 7,009,100 residents in 2022, according to Wikipedia's population table, which lists 18,000 for 1918 and 500,000 for 1972; the table's entries for some census years (1992 and 2010) are higher than the ones that follow and are not explained, so the growth path is uncertain. The same article gives the 2017 composition as 64.19% Saudi and 35.81% non-Saudi, with Indians the largest minority at 13.7% and Pakistanis at 12.4%. It contains no statistics on religious affiliation, and so no city-level Muslim share can be quoted here.
The history of the main mosque follows the history of the state. Ibn Saud captured the Musmak Palace from its Rashid garrison in January 1902. The Imam Turki bin Abdullah Grand Mosque stands in Deera Square in the ad-Dirah district beside the al-Hukm Palace compound, and is joined to the palace by two bridges across as-Safaat Square. The first mosque on the site was built between 1826 and 1830 in the reign of Turki bin Abdullah Al Saud. The present building was rebuilt in 1992 by the Arriyadh Development Authority and reopened in January 1993. Designed by Rasem Badran in the Modern Najdi style, it has two rectangular minarets, walls of brown Arriyadh limestone and a capacity of 17,000 worshippers, and it has been recognised with the Aga Khan Award for Architecture, although the article's year for the award (1995) does not match its own source (1992). In Diriyah, the Imam Mohammad bin Saud Mosque stands in the At-Turaif district.
For prayer times, Riyadh lies at about 24.6 degrees north and keeps Saudi Arabia Standard Time, UTC+3. On this site's calculation the fast from Fajr to Maghrib in Riyadh lasts about 15 hours on 21 June and 12 hours on 21 December. Congregation times are set by each mosque.
