Prayer Times in Al Qūşīyah, Egypt

Al Qūşīyah's times use the Egyptian method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Egypt. They are drawn from Al Qūşīyah's own coordinates (27.4402°N, 30.8171°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Al Qūşīyah's prayer times are worked out

From Al Qūşīyah, the Qibla is 124° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,131 km (702 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Al Qūşīyah's own coordinates (27.44°N, 30.82°E), not a national average. That is why Al Qūşīyah's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Al Qūşīyah timetable through the year. With the Egyptian method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 15h 34m around June. It eases to 11h 55m by December. That is a 3h 39m swing, set by the city's latitude of 27.44°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Al Qūşīyah 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 Qūşīyah sits west of its Cairo meridian. The sun peaks about 5 minutes after noon, so Dhuhr today is 12:55 PM. We also publish times for nearby Dayrūţ, Manfalūţ and Dayr Mawās. Each is only a few minutes off Al Qūşīyah's clock.
