How Alanya's prayer times are worked out

From Alanya, the Qibla is 154° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,844 km (1,146 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Alanya's own coordinates (36.54°N, 32.00°E), not a national average. That is why Alanya's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Alanya timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Alanya lies well west inside its Istanbul time zone. So the sun peaks about 60 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:50 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 31m near June down to 11h 13m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Alanya come from Diyanet İşleri Başkanlığı, Türkiye's state religious authority. The Diyanet method sets Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha at 17°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. We also publish times for nearby Manavgat, Belek and Anamur. Each is only a few minutes off Alanya's clock.
