The year 2026 in Houston

- Fajr

Over the year 2026, Fajr moves by 1 h 36 min and Maghrib by 3 h 05 min in Houston, clock changes included; the latest Isha falls at 21:44 on June 21.
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 Houston
At 29.8° latitude, the Sun sinks more than 18° below the horizon every night of the year: Fajr and Isha at 18° exist all year round in Houston.
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 no day, Isha on 232 days.
No national convention was found for the United States: times follow the most widely used method, Moonsighting Committee (seasonal Fajr, Isha at 18°).
