Prayer times at Ummah Nabawiah Masjid (UNM)

Worked out from this masjid’s coordinates for today’s date. They are not Ummah Nabawiah Masjid (UNM)’s announced jamaa‘ah times — those are set by the masjid and usually differ. Check theunm.com for the jamaa‘ah timetable.

Today

Calculated prayer times for Ummah Nabawiah Masjid (UNM), Etobicoke, for today’s date.
PrayerBegins
FajrDawn — ends at sunrise
SunriseFajr ends; no prayer at this moment
DhuhrJust after the sun crosses the meridian
AsrSet by the shadow ratio you choose below
MaghribAt sunset
IshaNightfall

These are calculated times, not Ummah Nabawiah Masjid (UNM)’s jamaa‘ah times. They are worked out in your browser from this masjid’s own coordinates and today’s date, using the ISNA convention — the same arithmetic a printed timetable uses. What a masjid announces is something else: iqamah is set by the masjid, usually a chosen number of minutes after the prayer begins, and many hold it at a fixed clock time for weeks at a stretch. So the two will not match, and they are not meant to. For the times the congregation actually prays, check the masjid’s own site or phone (416) 748-8033.

Jumu’ah

Lecture 1:10 pm and 2:10 pm; iqama 1:45 pm and 2:45 pm

Khutbah in Dari (Farsi), Arabic and English. Times shift with the season — confirm on theunm.com before travelling.

Janazah & burial services

Registered charity since 1994, ~28,000 sq ft building, Afghan-community-founded mosque also known as the "Afghan Mosque." Own site explicitly states they have a "well-equipped mortuary to give ghusl (bathing) and cold/refrigerated room for the storage of bodies" and provide facilities/volunteers to assist with funeral arrangements — one of the more genuinely funeral-capable mosques found in Etobicoke. Also offers nikah (marriage) services.

The current masjid building (approximately 28000 SF) was purchased in 1996 and converted to its current state in the last 12 years.' CRA registered it under the legal name NABAWI MOSQUE (890078793RR0001) effective 1995-01-01 at 2074 Kipling Ave, Etobicoke - the masjid's own address - a year after it was established and a year before it bought the building. Its stated mission is 'to bring the message of Islam to Muslims and non-Muslims and provide services to facilitate and promote Islamic conduct in an environment of brotherhood'.

What we haven’t confirmed

We could not establish: Ghusl for women, by women, Kafan (shroud), Transport of the deceased, 24-hour janazah line. Those are published as gaps rather than filled with a plausible guess. If you know the answer — especially if you are from this organisation — tell us and we will verify and update the listing.

Planning ahead, rather than in a crisis?

The two things a funeral coordinator asks a family for are the burial wishes and the will. Recording where your will is kept and working out the inheritance shares now spares your family both questions at the worst possible moment.
