How Bandar Seri Begawan's prayer times are worked out

From Bandar Seri Begawan, the Qibla is 291° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 8,270 km (5,139 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Bandar Seri Begawan's own coordinates (4.89°N, 114.94°E), not a national average. That is why Bandar Seri Begawan's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Bandar Seri Begawan sits just 4.89°N of the equator. Its prayer calendar barely shifts across the year. With the JAKIM method, the longest daily fast is about 13h 49m. The shortest is about 13h 14m. That is a swing of only 0h 35m between June and December. Whenever Ramadan falls, fasting hours here stay much the same — something cities farther from the equator never see.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Bandar Seri Begawan come from JAKIM, Malaysia's federal Islamic authority. The JAKIM method sets Fajr when the sun is 20° below the horizon, and Isha at 18°. 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 Labuan, Bandar Labuan and Marudi. Each is only a few minutes off Bandar Seri Begawan's clock.
