Friday prayer (jumuʿa) takes the place of the midday prayer. The time shown is the midday prayer (Dhuhr) next Friday in Reykjavík. The mosques do not publish a fixed time for the sermon on their websites; check it with the mosque.

The mosques do not all follow the same timetable. The times on islam.is follow the timetable of Félag múslima á Íslandi; each mosque publishes its own.

This lists Muslim organisations registered as religious associations with Þjóðskrá, Iceland’s national registry, ordered by number of members. islam.is is not affiliated with any of them and takes no position on them. The information comes from public sources and has not been confirmed by the organisations themselves. Last checked 30 October 2026.
