Umm Al Quwain Prayer Times Today

About prayer times in Umm Al Quwain

Umm Al Quwain sits on the northern coast between Ajman and Ras Al Khaimah, at roughly 25.6 degrees north. Its timings run within a minute or two of its immediate neighbours, and a few minutes ahead of Abu Dhabi away to the west.

Today Maghrib in Umm Al Quwain falls 3 minutes after Fujairah, the first place in the country to see sunset, and 4 minutes before Abu Dhabi, the last. The whole country is separated by only 7 minutes.

The old quarter on the peninsula keeps some of the emirate's longest standing masjids, small buildings a few steps from the water where fishing families have prayed for generations. Newer mosques serve Al Salamah and the Emirates Road corridor, where most of the recent housing has gone up.

UAQ is the quietest emirate in the country, and it is the one place where the adhan is often the loudest sound of the afternoon. In Ramadan, the Maghrib figure above marks iftar across the emirate, including the gatherings that form along the khor at sunset.
