Prayer times in El Salvador

El Salvador has a small Muslim community estimated at less than 0.1 percent of the population, numbering approximately 1,500 to 3,000 adherents. The community is composed primarily of Levantine Arab descendants (predominantly Palestinian, with Lebanese components) who migrated in the early to mid-twentieth century — the larger Palestinian-Salvadoran community in San Salvador is mostly Christian, but the Muslim component is substantial — alongside a smaller native Salvadoran convert population. The Mezquita Dar Al Hijra in San Salvador and the Centro Cultural Islámico Fátimah Az-Zahra (the Salvadoran Shia community center) are the principal congregational centers. The Asociación Islámica Salvadoreña is the principal national umbrella body. There is no state Islamic authority, and the community is too small to support a formal Islamic school within the country. eSalah uses the Muslim World League default for El Salvador, consistent with Central American regional practice; the ISNA method is offered as an alternate given proximity to and educational ties with the United States. The community maintains ongoing links with Honduran, Guatemalan, Mexican, and Floridian Muslim networks for religious resources.
