Singapore Prayer Schedule 2025: Daily Times, Eid & Duha

What time is prayer in Singapore?
What are the five daily prayer times?
- Subuh (Fajr): begins at dawn, before sunrise. Example 1 Jan 2025: 5:43 AM (Al-Habib prayer times aggregator).
- Syuruk (sunrise): marks the end of Fajr time; 1 Jan 2025: 7:07 AM.
- Zohor (Dhuhr): after the sun passes its zenith; 1 Jan 2025: 1:09 PM.
- Asar (Asr): mid-afternoon; 1 Jan 2025: 4:33 PM.
- Maghrib: just after sunset; 1 Jan 2025: 7:10 PM.
- Isyak (Isha): nightfall; 1 Jan 2025: 8:25 PM.
MUIS uses the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) calculation method for Singapore (MUIS, the official Islamic council). The five compulsory prayers follow the same order every day, but exact minutes shift with the sun.
How do the times change throughout the year?
- As Singapore lies near the equator, prayer times vary only slightly — typically a 10-15 minute range for Fajr and Isha across the year.
- Example from 31 July 2025: Subuh 5:46, Syuruk 7:06, Zohor 1:15, Asar 4:36, Maghrib 7:18, Isyak 8:30 (Al-Habib).
- By 1 September 2025, times shift: Subuh 5:45, Syuruk 7:00, Zohor 1:08, Asar 4:18, Maghrib 7:10, Isyak 8:20 (Al-Habib).
The pattern: the sun’s path changes little, so your daily alarm moves by only a few minutes month to month.
Where to find daily times?
- MUIS official website (muis.gov.sg) — shows current day’s times on homepage.
- MUIS Islamic Calendar page — offers a full 2025 PDF timetable (MUIS Resources).
- Al-Habib and other aggregators — provide daily and monthly schedules for Singapore (Al-Habib).
What time is the Eid al-Fitr prayer in 2025?
What is the typical time for Eid prayer?
- Eid prayers are usually held after sunrise, around 7:30–8:00 AM, to allow the sun to rise fully over the horizon.
- MUIS announces specific locations and times (often at the National Stadium or field mosques) each year (MUIS Islamic Calendar).
When is Eid al-Fitr 2025 expected?
- Based on the Islamic calendar, Eid al-Fitr 2025 is tentatively 31 March or 1 April 2025, subject to moon sighting (MUIS Calendar).
- The exact date is confirmed by MUIS a few days before, after official moon observation.
The implication: if you’re planning for the holiday, keep both dates open. The prayer itself will be announced with location and time a week in advance.
What time is the Eid al-Adha prayer in Singapore?
When is Eid al-Adha 2025?
- Eid al-Adha 2025 is expected to fall on Friday, 6 June 2025, as per the Islamic calendar (MUIS Calendar).
- An Instagram announcement from MUIS earlier this year marked “Shalat Idul Adha 1446 H” for that date.
What is the prayer time?
- Like Eid al-Fitr, the prayer is typically held after Syuruk (around 7:45 AM).
- MUIS will confirm the exact time and venues in the weeks leading up to the festival.
What this means: mark 6 June in your calendar, but stay tuned to MUIS for the final call. The pattern of a Friday Eid means many will have the day off for the celebration.
What time is Duha prayer in Singapore?
What is Duha prayer?
- Duha (also called Ishraq) is a voluntary prayer performed after sunrise, recommended 15–20 minutes after Syuruk until about 15 minutes before Dhuhr (MUIS standard practice).
- Ishraq usually refers to the prayer performed immediately after sunrise, while Duha covers the broader window until Dhuhr.
When does Duha time start and end?
- Start: approximately 7:25–7:30 AM on a typical January day (15 min after Syuruk at 7:07 AM).
- End: just before Zohor (13:09 PM). So the window is roughly 7:30 AM to 1:00 PM.
Difference between Ishraq and Duha
- Ishraq is the prayer immediately after sunrise; Duha is the same prayer but can be performed later in the forenoon.
- Most scholars consider them the same act with different timings.
For those new to voluntary prayers, Duha is the easiest to add to your morning routine. Even two rakats after the morning rush can bring spiritual benefit without disrupting work.
Can you pray 20 minutes before Fajr?
What is Tahajjud prayer?
- Tahajjud is a voluntary night prayer performed after Isha up until before Fajr, preferably in the last third of the night.
- In Singapore, the last third of the night for January 2025 would be roughly 1:30 AM to 5:43 AM (Fajr).
Can you pray before Fajr?
- Yes, voluntary prayers (including Tahajjud) are allowed after Isha until Fajr time starts.
- Praying 20 minutes before Fajr falls within the Tahajjud window as long as it is before the Fajr adhan.
- However, the actual Fajr obligatory prayer must be performed after the time begins, not before.
The trade-off: if you’re up late, Tahajjud is a flexible option, but be careful not to mistake pre-Fajr night prayer for the actual Fajr fardh.
