## How we calculate prayer times in Chicago

We calculate the times for Chicago from the city's coordinates (41.8781°, -87.6298°) and today's date with the ISNA (Islamic Society of North America) method: Fajr when the sun is 15° below the horizon, Isha at 15°.

In summer the sun doesn't sink that far below the horizon at this latitude, so we apply the angle-based rule for high latitudes: Fajr is never earlier than a share of the night before sunrise, and Isha never later than the same share after sunset (the share is the angle divided by 60).

ISNA's 15° convention is the one most North American prayer timetables are built on. Some mosques use 18° for Fajr and Isha instead, which gives an earlier Fajr and a later Isha; where your mosque publishes its own timetable, follow it.

Asr is shown two ways: the standard time, held by the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali schools (an object's shadow equals its length plus its shadow at noon), and the Hanafi time (twice its length), which comes later. Use the one your mosque follows.

Times are in local time, currently CST (UTC-6). Clocks change on Sunday 14 March 2027 (to CDT, UTC-5); the timetable and the countdown follow the change on their own.
