How Al Maḩallah al Kubrá's prayer times are worked out

From Al Maḩallah al Kubrá, the Qibla is 139° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,368 km (850 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Al Maḩallah al Kubrá's own coordinates (30.97°N, 31.17°E), not a national average. That is why Al Maḩallah al Kubrá's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Al Maḩallah al Kubrá timetable through the year. With the Egyptian method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 15h 58m around June. It eases to 11h 43m by December. That is a 4h 15m swing, set by the city's latitude of 30.97°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Al Maḩallah al Kubrá 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 Maḩallah al Kubrá sits close to its Cairo meridian, so Dhuhr lands near midday — 1:01 PM today. We also publish times for nearby Samannūd, Nabarūh and Al Mansurah.
