Today's Salah Times in Soweto
Dawn breaks over Soweto at 05:26. Meet it in sujood and the rest of the day arranges itself.
The Wudu Window
Waking thirty minutes before Fajr (05:26) gives you time for wudu, two rakat of sunnah and a calm transition into the obligatory prayer.
Sleeping in Wudu
Performing wudu before bed in Soweto shortens the gap between waking and the 05:26 takbir — and the angels make dua for the one who sleeps in wudu.
The Local Coastline Effect
Coastal cities perceive dawn slightly earlier than inland ones at the same latitude — your 05:26 in Soweto is the calendar truth, not the horizon’s mood.
Exercise After Fajr
A short walk after 05:26 in Soweto matches sunrise light to circadian rhythm, sharpening the rest of the day.
Karachi (Univ. of Islamic Sciences)
The Karachi method (18° / 18°) is widely used across South Asia; Soweto adopts Muslim World League instead, placing today’s Fajr at 05:26.
Village vs City Fajr
A village fifty kilometres from Soweto may differ by 1–3 minutes — your phone’s 05:26 is location-specific, not city-generic.
Annual Swing

Current Season Footprint
