Watford times follow the **London Unified Prayer Timetable**, adopted in 2011 by Hizbul Ulama UK and the Central Moon Sighting Committee of Great Britain and used by mosques across London and the M25, including East London Mosque and London Central Mosque. Its Fajr and Isha come from dawn and twilight observations rather than a fixed astronomical angle, which is why generic apps can differ — see [why London prayer times differ](/london-prayer-times-explained). Our copy of the published timetable is taken from [londonsalahtimes.com](https://www.londonsalahtimes.com) and checked against East London Mosque’s timetable. **Asr:** today’s Standard (Shafi’i, Maliki, Hanbali) Asr begins at 16:05 and Hanafi Asr at 16:54. The Hanafi rule waits until an object’s shadow is twice its length, so it is always later. **Start times, not congregation times:** the tables show when each prayer window opens. Each mosque sets its own iqamah (jama’ah) and Jummah times, and there is no fixed gap between the two — check your mosque’s timetable. [Our methods and sources](/methodology).
