Prayer Times in Edmonton
Edmonton observes Mountain Time and shifts its clocks for daylight saving, so the civil times shown for each prayer move with both the seasons and the spring and autumn clock changes. At roughly 53.5°N this is a high-latitude city, so the seasonal swing is large: midsummer brings very long days that push Fajr to the early hours and Isha late into the evening, while short winter days bring Maghrib to the mid to late afternoon. Times here are calculated with the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) method, widely used across Canada and the United States.
Ramadan in Edmonton
Because Ramadan moves about eleven days earlier each year on the Gregorian calendar, the length of the fasting day in Edmonton depends heavily on the season in which the month falls. At roughly 53.5°N the difference is pronounced: a summer Ramadan brings long days with an early Fajr and a late Maghrib, while a winter Ramadan brings noticeably shorter fasts.
Through these shifts, the suhoor and iftar times follow Fajr and Maghrib as shown in the live table above, calculated with the ISNA method and adjusted for daylight saving where it applies. During very long summer days, some Muslims at high latitudes follow guidance from their local imam or community on timing; worshippers in Edmonton should confirm the practice followed by their own mosque.
