About Faisalabad
Faisalabad, formerly known as Lyallpur, is the second-largest city and primary industrial centre of Pakistan's Punjab province, and the third-most populous city in the country, with a population of about 3.2 million. Established in the 1890s as a planned city in the Rachna Doab of central Punjab, it grew rapidly after the 1947 partition of British India as hundreds of thousands of East Punjabi Muslim migrants settled there. This page lists today's Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha times for the city's Muslim community.
Faisalabad, historically called Lyallpur, is a major city in the Punjab province of Pakistan and the administrative seat of Faisalabad District. It sits in the Rachna Doab, the fertile tract of central Punjab between rivers, at an elevation of roughly 184 metres. Established as a planned city in the 1890s, it is today the second-largest city in Punjab and the third-most populous in Pakistan.
The city is widely regarded as the primary industrial centre of Punjab and a hub of Pakistan's economy. Its population expanded dramatically in the years following the 1947 partition of British India, increasing several times over within a single decade as large numbers of East Punjabi Muslim immigrants settled there. That rapid, planned growth shaped the modern, grid-organised city that serves a large and diverse Muslim community.
Prayer Times in Faisalabad
Faisalabad keeps Pakistan Standard Time (UTC+5) year-round with no daylight saving, so the daily prayer schedule shifts only with the seasons rather than with any clock change. At roughly 31.5 degrees north, the city sees a clear seasonal swing: long, hot summer days push Fajr earlier in the morning and Isha later into the night, while shorter winter days bring Maghrib to the late afternoon and group the evening prayers closer together. Times shown here are calculated using the University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi method, which is widely followed across Pakistan.
Ramadan in Faisalabad
During Ramadan, the daily rhythm in Faisalabad follows the local Fajr and Maghrib times, with Suhoor (the pre-dawn meal) ending at Fajr and the fast broken at Maghrib. Because the city does not change its clocks for daylight saving, the timing of Suhoor and Iftar shifts only gradually as the season progresses and the length of the day changes.
When Ramadan falls in the summer months, the longer days at this latitude mean a longer fasting period, with an early Suhoor and a late Iftar, whereas a winter Ramadan brings shorter fasting hours and an earlier Maghrib. Throughout the month, congregational Taraweeh prayers are held after Isha at mosques across the city. For exact daily Suhoor and Iftar moments, follow the Fajr and Maghrib times listed on this page.
