Arīsh Prayer Times

Prayer Times in Arīsh, Egypt

Prayer times in Arīsh are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (31.13°N). We use the Egyptian method, the one followed across Egypt. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.

Arīsh's times use the Egyptian method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Egypt. They are drawn from Arīsh's own coordinates (31.1316°N, 33.7984°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Arīsh's prayer times are worked out

From Arīsh, the Qibla is 150° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,235 km (767 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Arīsh's own coordinates (31.13°N, 33.80°E), not a national average. That is why Arīsh's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Arīsh timetable through the year. With the Egyptian method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 15h 59m around June. It eases to 11h 42m by December. That is a 4h 17m swing, set by the city's latitude of 31.13°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Arīsh come from the Egyptian General Authority of Survey. The Egyptian method sets Fajr when the sun is 19.5° below the horizon, and Isha at 17.5°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. Arīsh sits east of its Cairo meridian. The sun peaks about 7 minutes before noon, so Dhuhr today is 12:43 PM. We also publish times for nearby Rafaḩ, Khān Yūnis and Dayr al Balaḩ. Each is only a few minutes off Arīsh's clock.
