Muslim Prayer Times Across Svalbard and Jan Mayen
Svalbard and Jan Mayen is served by a comprehensive prayer timetable covering 3 cities and towns. The salah schedule across the country is calculated using the Muslim World League, which is the standard recognised by Islamic authorities in the region. From Longyearbyen, Barentsburg, Ny-Alesund to smaller communities, every location receives an accurate daily prayer schedule.
Prayer times in Svalbard and Jan Mayen vary between cities due to differences in longitude and latitude. Eastern cities typically observe Fajr and sunrise earlier than western ones, while northern areas may experience greater seasonal variation in the gap between Maghrib and Isha. Our timetable accounts for each city's exact coordinates to ensure precision.
The adhan — the Islamic call to prayer — is observed five times daily across Svalbard and Jan Mayen. Each prayer has a defined window: Fajr before sunrise, Dhuhr after the sun's zenith, Asr in the late afternoon, Maghrib at sunset, and Isha once darkness falls. Understanding these windows helps Muslims plan their day around worship.
Browse the cities listed above to view a detailed daily and monthly salah timetable for any location in Svalbard and Jan Mayen. Each city page includes a live countdown to the next prayer, Hijri date, and the option to switch calculation methods if your local mosque follows a different convention.
At muslimprayer.live, our mission is to help every Muslim pray on time, wherever they are in the world. Salah is one of the most important obligations in Islam — as Allah says: "Indeed, prayer has been decreed upon the believers a decree of specified times" (Qur'an 4:103). We believe in the power of reminding one another, as the Qur'an teaches: "Command your family to pray and be steadfast in it" (Qur'an 20:132). You can share prayer time cards from any city page to help your friends and family stay connected to their daily prayers, no matter where they live. Together, we can support each other in fulfilling this blessed obligation.
