How Arganda's prayer times are worked out

From Arganda, the Qibla is 104° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,573 km (2,842 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Arganda's own coordinates (40.30°N, 3.44°W), not a national average. That is why Arganda's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Arganda timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Arganda lies well west inside its Madrid time zone. So the sun peaks about 82 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 2:12 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 17h 08m near June down to 10h 56m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Arganda 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 Rivas-Vaciamadrid, Villa de Vallecas and Coslada. Each is only a few minutes off Arganda's clock.
