Muslims all over the Middle East begin their morning with Fajr Salah. Taking time to pray is essential for daily worship and spiritual aptitude, and is a very important time, hence the need for accuracy.
For those seeking reliable updates, Gulf News frequently publishes accurate prayer schedules for major Gulf cities, aiding Muslims in their daily observances. Reviewing previous Fajr Prayer times, such as on September 28, shows Riyadh at 4:26 AM, Dubai at approximately 4:49 AM, reflecting the gradual seasonal adjustments. This consistency helps worshippers maintain spiritual discipline across the Middle East.
Why City-specific Times Differ
Fajr prayer times in varying cities happen at different times due to longitude/latitude and sunrise. Hence, it is always important to follow the prayer times of your location.
