How Ar Rass's prayer times are worked out

From Ar Rass, the Qibla is 218° from true north. Face southwest to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 620 km (385 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Ar Rass's own coordinates (25.87°N, 43.50°E), not a national average. That is why Ar Rass's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Ar Rass timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Ar Rass lies well west inside its Riyadh time zone. So the sun peaks about 14 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:03 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 15h 19m near June down to 11h 56m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Ar Rass 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 Unaizah, Buraydah and Az Zulfī. Each is only a few minutes off Ar Rass's clock.
