Prayer times in Germany

Germany has a Muslim community of approximately 6.6 percent of the population, or roughly 5.5 million people, the largest in Western Europe after France. The community is drawn predominantly from Turkish migrant origin (the largest single group, descended from the 1960s–1970s Gastarbeiter labor recruitment), with substantial communities of Bosniak, Kurdish, Arab (Lebanese, Syrian, Iraqi, Palestinian, and post-2015 Syrian refugees), Iranian, Afghan, North African, and South Asian background. The Şehitlik Mosque in Berlin (opened 2005) and the DİTİB Cologne Central Mosque (opened 2018) are among the largest congregational facilities in the country. The Wilmersdorf Mosque in Berlin, opened in 1928 by the Ahmadiyya community, is the oldest surviving mosque in Germany. The four-pillar coordinating body Koordinationsrat der Muslime (KRM), composed of DITIB, the Islamrat, the Zentralrat der Muslime, and VIKZ, represents the community in dealings with the federal state. eSalah uses the Germany custom method (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°) for German cities, which aligns with the most widely-published timetables.
