Al-Khārijah Prayer Times

Prayer Times in Al-Khārijah, Egypt

Prayer times in Al-Khārijah are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (25.25°N). We use the Egyptian method, the one followed across Egypt. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.

Al-Khārijah's times use the Egyptian method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Egypt. They are drawn from Al-Khārijah's own coordinates (25.2500°N, 30.5500°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Al-Khārijah's prayer times are worked out

From Al-Khārijah, the Qibla is 112° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,038 km (645 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Al-Khārijah's own coordinates (25.25°N, 30.55°E), not a national average. That is why Al-Khārijah's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Al-Khārijah timetable through the year. With the Egyptian method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 15h 21m around June. It eases to 12h 03m by December. That is a 3h 18m swing, set by the city's latitude of 25.25°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Al-Khārijah come from the Egyptian General Authority of Survey. The Egyptian method sets Fajr when the sun is 19.5° below the horizon, and Isha at 17.5°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. Al-Khārijah sits west of its Cairo meridian. The sun peaks about 6 minutes after noon, so Dhuhr today is 12:43 PM. We also publish times for nearby Al Khārjah, Girga and Al Balyanā. Each is only a few minutes off Al-Khārijah's clock.
