Night duration: From today’s Maghrib until tomorrow’s Fajr
Last-third duration: Total night duration ÷ 3
Last third begins: Tomorrow’s Fajr minus one-third of the night
Isha is shown because Tahajjud is prayed after Isha, but Isha is not used to calculate the last third.

FAQ
What time is Tahajjud tonight?
Tonight in Doha, the last third begins at 12:42 AM and ends when Fajr begins at 3:55 AM. Select another city for a local calculation.
What is the last third of the night?
It is the final third of the period from one day's Maghrib until the following day's Fajr.
How is the last third of the night calculated?
The calculator measures local Maghrib to the following Fajr, divides that duration by three, and subtracts one-third from Fajr.
Does Tahajjud only begin in the last third?
No. Tahajjud may be prayed after Isha until Fajr. The calculator highlights the last third because many worshippers prefer it.
Can Tahajjud be prayed before the last third?
Yes. Voluntary night prayer may be offered after Isha and before the last third, subject to the trusted guidance you follow.
Why do different cities show different Tahajjud times?
Maghrib and Fajr vary with geographic location, date, and timezone, so the night length and last-third start also vary.
Why do Makkah, Madinah and Riyadh have different times?
The three cities share a timezone, but their coordinates give them different sun positions and therefore different Maghrib and Fajr times.
Should I follow this calculator or my local mosque?
Use the calculator as a planning reference. If a local mosque timetable or trusted local authority differs, follow the local guidance appropriate to you.
