How Al-'Ubūr's prayer times are worked out

From Al-'Ubūr, the Qibla is 138° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,286 km (799 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Al-'Ubūr's own coordinates (30.23°N, 31.48°E), not a national average. That is why Al-'Ubūr's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Al-'Ubūr timetable through the year. With the Egyptian method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 15h 53m around June. It eases to 11h 45m by December. That is a 4h 08m swing, set by the city's latitude of 30.23°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Al-'Ubūr 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-'Ubūr sits close to its Cairo meridian, so Dhuhr lands near midday — 12:52 PM today. We also publish times for nearby Al Khānkah, El Shorouk and Mashtūl as Sūq. Each is only a few minutes off Al-'Ubūr's clock.
