ISNA (Islamic Society of North America) Asr: Mixed

Calculation method

Fajr and Isha at 15° below the horizon — the common North American convention. Some NYC mosques use Muslim World League (18°) instead.

Asr (madhab)

Mixed. Many Arab and West African mosques use Shafi’i Asr (shadow equals object length); South Asian and Turkish mosques often use Hanafi Asr. Check the mosque you attend.

Local context

Several large mosques (ICNYU, Darul Uloom, 96th Street) publish their own calendars — match the one you pray at.

Setting it up

  1. Open your prayer-time app and pick New York City (or let it use your GPS).
  2. Set the calculation method to ISNA (Islamic Society of North America).
  3. Choose the Asr convention your mosque uses — here, typically Mixed.
  4. Compare one day’s Fajr and Maghrib against your mosque’s adhan; if they’re within a minute or two, you’re set.
