Prayer schedule [according to the US Eastern time zone]

Look for Sunrise time, set up Alarm clock so you can wake up on time, prepare, and Pray.

(1.) Fajr Salat: pray 20-30 minutes before Sunrise (it would be better if you can find start and end time)

(2.) Zuhr Salat: pray between 1:15 pm to 2:30 pm

(3.) Aasr Salat: pray between 5:15pm to 7 pm. (adjust schedule as time changes).

(4.) Magrib Salat: pray 5-7 minutes after Sunset to up to 20 or 25 minutes (approximately).

(time is very short here at Magrib, so plan ahead).

(5.) Isha/Eesha Salat: pray as of June 15, ’23 at 10 pm to 11:50 pm (approximately & varies by time zone).

*Adjust your Salat Schedule according to your sunrise and sunset time.
