How ‘Ayn al ‘Arab's prayer times are worked out

From ‘Ayn al ‘Arab, the Qibla is 175° from true north. Face south to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,726 km (1,072 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from ‘Ayn al ‘Arab's own coordinates (36.89°N, 38.35°E), not a national average. That is why ‘Ayn al ‘Arab's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the ‘Ayn al ‘Arab timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. ‘Ayn al ‘Arab lies well west inside its Damascus time zone. So the sun peaks about 35 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:12 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 34m near June down to 11h 12m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for ‘Ayn al ‘Arab 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 Suruç, Şanlıurfa and Nizip. Each is only a few minutes off ‘Ayn al ‘Arab's clock.
