Prayer Times in Rio de Janeiro

Today's Fajr time for Rio de Janeiro is at the top of this page, with a live countdown. It is computed from the sun's position at Rio de Janeiro's coordinates using the Muslim World League method and shown in America/Sao_Paulo, so it is correct whether you are reading this in Rio de Janeiro or planning a trip from elsewhere.

Maghrib begins the moment the sun sets in Rio de Janeiro, and in Ramadan that is the time to break your fast. Today's Maghrib is listed above and the monthly timetable below gives every day this month, so you can plan ahead.

Brazil generally follows Muslim World League, which is what this page uses by default. Methods differ mainly in the sun angle they use for Fajr and Isha, so the two ends of the day can vary by several minutes between them. If your mosque follows another method, the prayer times tool lets you switch and see the difference.

The qibla from Rio de Janeiro is 68° E from north, measured as a great-circle bearing to the Kaaba in Makkah — the shortest path across the earth's surface, which is why it can differ from the direction a flat map suggests.

They are calculated for Rio de Janeiro's own coordinates rather than a country-wide average, which matters: prayer times shift by roughly four minutes for every degree of longitude. For the closest match, use the page for the city nearest you.
