Prayer times at Masjid-ut-Taqwa

Worked out from this masjid’s coordinates for today’s date. They are not Masjid-ut-Taqwa’s announced jamaa‘ah times — those are set by the masjid and usually differ. Check taqwamasjid.ca for the jamaa‘ah timetable.

Today

Calculated prayer times for Masjid-ut-Taqwa, Toronto, 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 Masjid-ut-Taqwa’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) 406-6282.

Janazah & burial services

Established 1996 by Toronto's Sri Lankan Muslim community, just south of Danforth near Greenwood Ave. Offers Sunday School and counselling referrals. No janazah/funeral services confirmed on the website — worth a call to verify given local community demand.

About Masjid-ut-Taqwa

Tradition — as the organisation describes itself

Sunni. The mosque's own website states it "serves as a center for all Muslims of Sunni devotion, regardless of their culture or nationality." We publish how a community describes itself — never our own categorisation of it.

What we haven’t confirmed

We could not establish: On-site mortuary, Cold storage, Ghusl facility, Ghusl for women, by women, Kafan (shroud), Transport of the deceased and more. 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.
