Today's Salah Times in Chicago
Dawn breaks over Chicago at 03:33. Meet it in sujood and the rest of the day arranges itself.
Today vs Yesterday
Today’s Fajr at 03:33 arrives 1 minute(s) earlier than yesterday — a small daily drift you would never notice without tracking it.
Weekend Fajr
Even on the weekend, Fajr at 03:33 in Chicago is the cleanest hour of the day — protecting it pays back hours later.
Longitude Footprint
Each 1° of longitude shifts Fajr by roughly four minutes — Chicago sits at 87.6° west, anchoring its dawn at 03:33.
Equinox Fajr
Near each equinox the dawn window in Chicago sits close to its yearly average — today’s 102 minutes is a useful midpoint reference.
High-Latitude Adjustment
For latitudes where dawn never fully arrives, the calendar applies a high-latitude rule — at 41.9°, Chicago’s Fajr at 03:33 reflects that adjustment when relevant.
A Ramadan-Ready Routine
Building a daily Fajr habit in Chicago now — bed at 20:03, prayer at 03:33 — is the single best preparation for Ramadan.
The First White Thread
The Qur’an’s “white thread of dawn distinct from the black thread” describes the moment Fajr begins — in Chicago that moment is fixed at 03:33.
Six-Hour Minimum
If circumstances make 20:03 impossible, sleeping six hours and waking at Fajr (03:33) is enough — sleep deprivation is repaid in afternoon qailulah, never in missed prayer.
