How Ben Arous's prayer times are worked out

From Ben Arous, the Qibla is 113° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,323 km (2,065 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Ben Arous's own coordinates (36.75°N, 10.22°E), not a national average. That is why Ben Arous's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Ben Arous timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Ben Arous lies well west inside its Tunis time zone. So the sun peaks about 28 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:17 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 32m near June down to 11h 11m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Ben Arous 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 El Mourouj, Radès and Tunis. Each is only a few minutes off Ben Arous's clock.
