Prayer Times in ‘Amrān, Yemen

Prayer times in ‘Amrān are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (15.66°N). We use the Umm al-Qura method, the one followed across Yemen. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.

‘Amrān's times use the Umm al-Qura method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Yemen. They are drawn from ‘Amrān's own coordinates (15.6594°N, 43.9438°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How ‘Amrān's prayer times are worked out

From ‘Amrān, the Qibla is 327° from true north. Face northwest to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 774 km (481 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from ‘Amrān's own coordinates (15.66°N, 43.94°E), not a national average. That is why ‘Amrān's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the ‘Amrān timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. ‘Amrān lies well west inside its Aden time zone. So the sun peaks about 12 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 11:48 AM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 27m near June down to 12h 31m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for ‘Amrān come from Umm al-Qura University, Makkah. The Umm al-Qura method sets Fajr when the sun is 18.5° below the horizon, and Isha 90 minutes after Maghrib. 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 Sanaa, Sayyān and Dhamār. Each is only a few minutes off ‘Amrān's clock.

Prayer times in Yemen

Yemen is almost entirely Muslim, divided between Shafi'i Sunnis and Zaydi Shia. The Shafi'is are historically strongest in the south and centre, the Zaydis in the northern highlands. Zaydism is a branch of Shia Islam whose jurisprudence sits unusually close to Sunni practice, so the two traditions' prayer times differ little. This page applies the Umm al-Qura calculation (Fajr 18.5°, with Isha 90 minutes after Maghrib) to the city's own coordinates. Yemen keeps a year-round UTC+3 clock. Its low latitude holds day length fairly steady through the year, and with it the fasting hours of Ramadan.

The Great Mosque of Sana'a

Sana'a's Great Mosque is one of the oldest mosques in the world, founded in the earliest years of Islam. Tradition places its beginning in the Prophet's own lifetime. It is counted among the first built outside Mecca and Medina. It stands at the heart of the Old City of Sana'a, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It was here, during restoration in 1972, that the Sana'a manuscript came to light: among the oldest surviving fragments of the Qur'an anywhere. Yemen's mosques, Shafi'i and Zaydi alike, call the first-shadow Asr shown on this page.

Mosques in ‘Amrān

Mosques in and around ‘Amrān include جامع السلام, جامع العدل, الجامع الكبير بعمران, جامع السعيد, جامع الحسين and جامع رعناء.

That is the congregation, called a few minutes after each prayer starts.
