Prayer times in Cambodia

Cambodia has a Muslim community of approximately 2 to 4 percent of the population, numbering roughly 400,000 to 700,000 people, comprising the Cham ethnic group (descendants of the Hindu and later Muslim Champa kingdom that flourished in central Vietnam from the second to the seventeenth century before its absorption by the Vietnamese Đại Việt) and a smaller Chvea (Malay-Cambodian) community. The community is overwhelmingly Sunni of the Shafi'i school, reflecting Malay Archipelago influence, with a notable proportion of Imam-San (Cham Bani) traditionalists who practice a distinctive five-times-yearly congregational prayer in addition to private daily devotion. The community was severely persecuted under the Khmer Rouge regime (1975–1979), with an estimated 50 to 70 percent of Cambodian Muslims killed and almost all mosques destroyed. The Nurul Iman Mosque in Phnom Penh and the Al-Serkal Mosque (rebuilt in 2014 with UAE funding) are major contemporary congregational centers. The Highest Council for Islamic Religious Affairs of Cambodia is the recognized national body. eSalah uses MWL default; Kemenag-Indonesia and Karachi methods alternate.
