The year 2026 in Iqaluit
Time of the five prayers on every day of the year (method: Moonsighting Committee).
- Fajr
- from 01:44 (June 18) to 07:36 (December 24)
- Dhuhr
- from 11:23 (November 1) to 12:50 (March 8)

- Isha
- from 15:25 (December 13) to 23:29 (June 22)
Over the year 2026, Fajr moves by 5 h 52 min and Maghrib by 9 h 19 min in Iqaluit, clock changes included; the latest Isha falls at 23:29 on June 22.
Clocks go forward one hour on March 8 and back one hour on November 1: on those days every prayer jumps by an hour on the chart.

What latitude changes in Iqaluit
At 63.7° latitude, even the 12° angle is not reached on 108 nights in Iqaluit, and the Sun stays above −18° on 144 nights, from April 10 to August 31: dawn and the end of twilight do not exist in the astronomical sense on those nights.
The “Moonsighting Committee” method never uses a Fajr earlier than the seasonal durations of the Moonsighting Committee (minutes before sunrise, depending on latitude and season): in 2026, the displayed Fajr comes from this rule on 365 days, Isha on 365 days.
No national convention was found for Canada: times follow the most widely used method, Moonsighting Committee (seasonal Fajr, Isha at 18°).
