How Ali Sabih's prayer times are worked out

From Ali Sabih, the Qibla is 345° from true north. Face north to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,182 km (735 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Ali Sabih's own coordinates (11.16°N, 42.71°E), not a national average. That is why Ali Sabih's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Ali Sabih timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Ali Sabih lies well west inside its Djibouti time zone. So the sun peaks about 18 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:08 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 05m near June down to 12h 44m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Ali Sabih come from the Muslim World League. The Muslim World League 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 Djibouti, Ārabī and Borama. Each is only a few minutes off Ali Sabih's clock.
