How Arzew's prayer times are worked out

From Arzew, the Qibla is 101° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,197 km (2,608 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Arzew's own coordinates (35.85°N, 0.32°W), not a national average. That is why Arzew's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Arzew timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Arzew lies well west inside its Algiers time zone. So the sun peaks about 70 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:00 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 25m near June down to 11h 15m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Arzew 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 Assi Bou Nif, Bir el Djir and En Nedjma. Each is only a few minutes off Arzew's clock.
