Prayer Times in Al Manzalah, Egypt

Al Manzalah's times use the Egyptian method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Egypt. They are drawn from Al Manzalah's own coordinates (31.1582°N, 31.9360°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Al Manzalah's prayer times are worked out

From Al Manzalah, the Qibla is 142° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,337 km (831 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Al Manzalah's own coordinates (31.16°N, 31.94°E), not a national average. That is why Al Manzalah's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Al Manzalah timetable through the year. With the Egyptian method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 15h 59m around June. It eases to 11h 41m by December. That is a 4h 18m swing, set by the city's latitude of 31.16°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Al Manzalah 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 Manzalah sits close to its Cairo meridian, so Dhuhr lands near midday — 12:51 PM today. We also publish times for nearby Al Jammālīyah, Al Maţarīyah and Minyat an Naşr. Each is only a few minutes off Al Manzalah's clock.
