How Al Khuşūş's prayer times are worked out

From Al Khuşūş, the Qibla is 137° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,291 km (802 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Al Khuşūş's own coordinates (30.15°N, 31.32°E), not a national average. That is why Al Khuşūş's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Al Khuşūş timetable through the year. With the Egyptian method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 15h 52m around June. It eases to 11h 45m by December. That is a 4h 07m swing, set by the city's latitude of 30.15°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Al Khuşūş 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 Khuşūş sits close to its Cairo meridian, so Dhuhr lands near midday — 1:01 PM today. We also publish times for nearby Shubrā al Khaymah, Ḩadā’iq al Qubbah and Al Khānkah. Each is only a few minutes off Al Khuşūş's clock.
