Welcome to Islamic Prayer Times in Australia on MuslimandQuran.com! We help you stay connected with your faith by providing accurate Islamic prayer times in your region. With our salah times, you don't miss any obligatory prayers! The prayer timings are scheduled separately for each city for each city according to their geographical locations.
Salah, obligatory prayer or namaz, is the second pillar of Islam. Islam is based on the belief that believers have a direct relationship with Allah and should turn to HIM five times a day in the form of salah to maintain this direct relationship. Muslims are required to pray Fajr before sunrise, Dhuhr in the afternoon, Asr in the late afternoon, Maghrib right after sunset, and Isha at night.
Muslim and Quran's goal is to provide accurate prayer timings to Muslims worldwide so they can offer their salah on time. Whether residing in Australia or visiting for work, tourism, or other purposes, the Muslim and Quran website and app will provide reliable prayer times. You can find prayer times for all major cities of Australia, including Adelaide, Canberra, Melbourne, Sydney, Hobart, Perth, Brisbane, and more.
The Muslim and Quran App is available for both iOS and Android. To find accurate prayer times with the Muslim and Quran website or app, open MuslimandQuran.com or the Muslim and Quran mobile application and do the following:
Click or tap the "prayer times" option in the top left corner.
If you have your location turned off, you will automatically get the prayer times for your respective location.

You can also choose the month and year for the prayer timings.
Muslims make up approximately 3.2% of the total Australian population. Therefore, the community is also ethnically, racially, and culturally diverse and has a unique heritage and cultural mark in Australia. For example, the Islamic Museum of Australia is a remarkable example of the heritage Muslims have established on the continent. The Islamic Museum of Australia is the first museum in the country dedicated to Islamic art and Muslim artists.
Australia's Muslim community has left no stone unturned to support their fellow community members through community services and organizations. Some of the most prominent organizations working for the welfare of their community are as follows:
Muslim Charity Community of WA Inc.
Al Salaam Society Inc.
Muslim Women Welfare and Advocacy WA Inc.

Nizams Indian Restaurant, North Melbourne
YOI Indonesian Fusion, Melbourne
Swanson Halal Food Centre, Melbourne
Afghan Gallery, Fitzroy
