Waktu Solat Pasir Gudang 2026: Accurate Prayer Times from MAIJ

If you’ve ever tried to check prayer times for Pasir Gudang on a smartphone app and got a different time than the mosque’s announcement board, you’re not imagining it. The official schedule from Majlis Agama Islam Johor (MAIJ) – the state religious authority sometimes differs by a few minutes from what aggregator apps show.

Official source for Johor: MAIJ (Majlis Agama Islam Johor) · Sample Maghrib time (Pasir Gudang): 7:07 PM · Daily prayers: 5 (Subuh, Zohor, Asar, Maghrib, Isyak) · Population of Pasir Gudang: approx. 300,000

A five-prayer day in Pasir Gudang, with one pattern: the official MAIJ timings are the benchmark, while aggregators vary by up to four minutes. Below are sample values from the MAIJ portal.

What is the Maghrib time in Pasir Gudang?

Current Maghrib time from MAIJ

• On the MAIJ official page, the Maghrib time for Johor districts (including Pasir Gudang) is listed as 07:07 PM.
• Another MAIJ page (MAIJ – district prayer times) shows 07:10 PM, likely a different date or district subset.

Two MAIJ pages show values within three minutes of each other – the difference comes from the date the screenshot was taken, not an error.

Variations across different sources

Third-party sites show a split. PrayerTimes.one – a prayer-time aggregator lists Maghrib as 7:07 PM, matching MAIJ. Hamariweb shows 6:50 PM for a sample date in November 2025 – a 17‑minute gap. That kind of discrepancy can affect iftar timing during Ramadan.

“Sumber: e-Solat (JAKIM)”

– MAIJ official prayer-time page

The implication: MAIJ is transparent about its upstream source. When an app deviates from MAIJ, the app is likely using a different calculation method (e.g., Umm al-Qura vs. Egyptian General Authority).

MAIJ’s page states: “Waktu Solat bagi daerah-daerah di Negeri Johor” (MAIJ – official Johor prayer-time page).

What are the prayer times for Pasir Gudang in 2026?

Monthly schedule overview for 2026

MAIJ has not yet posted the full 2026 calendar, but based on historical patterns, times will shift by roughly 20–30 seconds per day as the sun’s declination changes. For a January 2026 sample, PrayerTimes.date provides an estimate: Imsak 05:42, Fajr 05:52, Sunrise 07:14, Dhuhr 13:15, Asr 16:39, Maghrib 19:16, Isha 20:30.

How dates affect prayer times

Because Pasir Gudang is near the equator (1°N), prayer times vary less across the year than in higher latitudes. The difference between the longest and shortest day’s Maghrib is only about 10 minutes.

The pattern: Until MAIJ releases the official calendar, projections from third-party sites should be treated as estimates.

Are prayer times in Pasir Gudang the same as Johor Bahru?

Differences between Pasir Gudang and Johor Bahru

• According to MAIJ, Pasir Gudang and Johor Bahru are listed under the same district group, meaning they share identical prayer times.
• Other Johor districts such as Kota Tinggi, Mersing, and Kulai may differ by 1–3 minutes because MAIJ uses geographic zone calculations.

Commonalities with other Johor districts

The MAIJ page groups districts into zones; Pasir Gudang falls under the same zone as Johor Bahru. So if you see a time for Johor Bahru on MAIJ, it applies to Pasir Gudang.

What this means: Anyone in Pasir Gudang can safely use the Johor Bahru MAIJ schedule without adjusting. The same does not hold for other districts.

Where can I find the official prayer schedule for Pasir Gudang?

MAIJ website

The primary source is the MAIJ portal at maij.gov.my/waktu-solat/ – the official state religious council site. It lists times for all Johor districts and links to JAKIM’s e-Solat.

IslamicFinder and other apps

Apps like IslamicFinder and MuslimPro are aggregators that use their own calculation parameters. While convenient, they are not officially endorsed by MAIJ. A spot-check showed Hamariweb giving a Maghrib time 17 minutes earlier than MAIJ for one date. That is enough to miss the actual call to prayer.

The implication: For the most reliable times, always default to the MAIJ schedule and treat apps as secondary.

How to check accurate prayer times in Pasir Gudang?

Using MAIJ portal

1. Go to MAIJ’s prayer-time page.
2. Select the date or month.
3. Read the times for the Pasir Gudang / Johor Bahru zone.

Verifying with local mosques

Mosques in Pasir Gudang, such as Masjid AN-nur Bandar Pasir Gudang – local mosque listing, display daily prayer times. These are almost always sourced from MAIJ.

The pattern is clear: the official channel (MAIJ) gives you the state-authorised time; the mosque confirms it. Stick to those two.

For the person living in Pasir Gudang who wants to catch the exact congregation time, the choice is clear: use the MAIJ official schedule as your primary reference, and treat any app as a secondary convenience tool. Miss the official time, and you risk praying alone rather than with the Jamaah.
