How Ben Gardane's prayer times are worked out

From Ben Gardane, the Qibla is 108° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,099 km (1,926 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Ben Gardane's own coordinates (33.14°N, 11.22°E), not a national average. That is why Ben Gardane's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Ben Gardane timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Ben Gardane lies well west inside its Tunis time zone. So the sun peaks about 24 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:13 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 03m near June down to 11h 26m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Ben Gardane 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 Zarzis, Medenine and Tataouine. Each is only a few minutes off Ben Gardane's clock.
