How Banī Suwayf's prayer times are worked out

From Banī Suwayf, the Qibla is 132° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,222 km (759 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Banī Suwayf's own coordinates (29.07°N, 31.10°E), not a national average. That is why Banī Suwayf's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Banī Suwayf timetable through the year. With the Egyptian method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 15h 45m around June. It eases to 11h 49m by December. That is a 3h 56m swing, set by the city's latitude of 29.07°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Banī Suwayf 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. Banī Suwayf sits close to its Cairo meridian, so Dhuhr lands near midday — 1:01 PM today. We also publish times for nearby Ihnāsīyah, Būsh and Bibā. Each is only a few minutes off Banī Suwayf's clock.
