Fajr Prayer in Zanzibar โ€” Frequently Asked Questions

Answers refreshed daily based on today's actual Fajr time, sunrise, sunset, and Hijri date in Zanzibar.

What time is Fajr today in Zanzibar?
Fajr in Zanzibar, Tanzania begins today (Thursday, June 11, 2026) at 05:12 local time (Africa/Dar_es_Salaam). This is the start of the dawn prayer window, which closes at sunrise.
When does the Fajr window end in Zanzibar?
The Fajr window closes the moment the upper edge of the sun crosses the horizon at sunrise. Praying Fajr after sunrise means it is missed and must be made up as qada (make-up prayer) as soon as you remember. Tomorrow Fajr begins at 05:12.
Is it permissible to combine Fajr with another prayer?
