About these times
The times above are calculated for Kuala Lumpur using the JAKIM (Malaysia) method. They change a little each day, so this page reads today's times when you open it.
Fajr begins at dawn and Sunrise ends the Fajr window. Dhuhr is after the sun passes its highest point, Asr is in the afternoon, Maghrib is at sunset, and Isha begins when the evening twilight ends.
Local mosques may announce slightly different times. If your mosque publishes its own timetable, follow it.
Kuala Lumpur in numbers

Day length in Kuala Lumpur runs from about 11 h 49 min on the shortest day of the year (around 21 December) to about 12 h 11 min on the longest (around 21 June), a difference of roughly 0 h 22 min. That is why the time between Fajr and Maghrib moves so much through the year, and why a fast in Ramadan is longer or shorter depending on the season in which Ramadan falls.
