About prayer times in Johor Bahru
These are the five daily prayer (namaz) times for Johor Bahru, Malaysia - Fajr at dawn, Dhuhr at midday, Asr in the afternoon, Maghrib just after sunset and Isha at night. Each azan (adhan) is called at the start of these times, and the five together are called salah (salat).
Johor Bahru's times are calculated from the sun's position for the city's coordinates (1.4927, 103.7414) each day, in the Asia/Kuala_Lumpur timezone, using the Muslim World League method - a global standard used across much of the world. Because the calculation follows the sun, the exact minutes change a little every day. The Asr time shown uses the standard (Shafi) position; communities following the Hanafi school pray Asr later. For the precise start of Fajr and Isha, where twilight is gradual, follow your local Johor Bahru mosque.
