How 'Ārdamatā's prayer times are worked out

From 'Ārdamatā, the Qibla is 62° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 2,038 km (1,267 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from 'Ārdamatā's own coordinates (13.48°N, 22.49°E), not a national average. That is why 'Ārdamatā's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the 'Ārdamatā timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. 'Ārdamatā lies well west inside its Khartoum time zone. So the sun peaks about 39 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:28 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 15m near June down to 12h 36m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for 'Ārdamatā 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 El Geneina Fort, Al-Junaynah and Goz Beida. Each is only a few minutes off 'Ārdamatā's clock.
