Konya Prayer Times

Konya sits on the southwestern edge of the Central Anatolian Plateau at roughly 1,019 metres of elevation, and with a population of about 2.2 million it ranks among Turkey's largest cities and the metropolitan capital of Konya Province. Known in antiquity and Seljuk times as Iconium, the city served as the capital of the Seljuk Turks' Sultanate of Rum, and it remains the spiritual home of the Mevlevi Order associated with the Whirling Dervishes. This page provides daily prayer times for Konya, calculated for its location in central Turkey using the Turkey Diyanet method.

Konya is one of the most historically significant cities in Anatolia. During the late medieval period it was the capital of the Sultanate of Rum, from where the Seljuk sultans ruled over much of Anatolia, and that era left the city with a deep layer of Islamic architecture and learning. The city is widely regarded as the spiritual centre of the Mevlevi Order, a Sufi tradition famous internationally for the ceremony of the Whirling Dervishes, and Konya draws visitors from across Turkey and the wider Muslim world who come to connect with this heritage.

Today Konya is a large metropolitan municipality on the Central Anatolian Plateau, combining its historic core with a modern provincial capital of more than two million residents. For Muslims living in or visiting the city, the daily prayer schedule follows the same Turkey Diyanet calculation used nationwide, so the times listed here align with the wider practice across the country. The city's elevation and inland, continental setting mean the gap between dawn and nightfall changes appreciably between the seasons, which is reflected in how the prayer times move across the year.
