About prayer times in Manchester
Manchester is located at 53.4808° N, 2.2426° W. Times on this page are calculated with the Muslim World League (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°) method and the standard (Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali, Ja'fari) Asr method. Times may differ by a few minutes from your local mosque, which may add precautionary minutes. Because Manchester is at a high latitude, the sun may not go 18° below the horizon in summer, so an angle-based high-latitude rule is applied to keep Fajr and Isha realistic.
