Malaysia Prayer Times Guide
Prayer times (waktu solat) form the daily schedule that guides Muslims across Malaysia in performing the five obligatory prayers at their appointed moments. This page displays the times for Subuh, Syuruk, Zohor, Asar, Maghrib and Isyak for Kuala Lumpur and other major cities, complete with the Hijri date and a countdown to the next prayer so you are always prepared.
To use this tool, select your city from the dropdown menu at the top. The prayer time table updates automatically for that location, and the upcoming prayer card is highlighted so you can clearly see which prayer is next and how much time remains. The Gregorian and Hijri dates are also shown for your Islamic calendar reference.
The prayer times on this page are calculated using the Muslim World League method (Method 3), an astronomical approach that defines the angle of the sun below the horizon for the Subuh and Isyak times. This method is widely used in Malaysia and produces times very close to the official schedules. However, JAKIM and state religious departments may use slightly different parameters, so the times shown here should be treated as a reference.
Malaysia spans a wide area, from Perlis in the north to Johor in the south, plus Sabah and Sarawak on Borneo. Because prayer times depend on the position of the sun, which varies with latitude and longitude, the times in each city differ by a few minutes. For example, the sun rises earlier in Kuching and Kota Kinabalu than in the Peninsula, making their Subuh and Maghrib times earlier.
Syuruk and Imsak often cause confusion. Syuruk is the moment of sunrise and marks the end of the window for performing the Subuh prayer — it is not a prayer in itself. Imsak marks the start of the fasting period during Ramadan, usually around ten minutes before Subuh, as a warning for Muslims to stop eating and drinking before the Subuh call to prayer.
For the most accurate and official times for worship, we always encourage you to refer to the JAKIM e-Solat app, your local mosque, or your state religious department. This tool is designed to provide a quick and convenient reference, especially when you are out and about or planning a journey, so that you never miss a prayer time.
