How Bongor's prayer times are worked out

From Bongor, the Qibla is 62° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 2,888 km (1,795 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Bongor's own coordinates (10.28°N, 15.37°E), not a national average. That is why Bongor's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Bongor timetable through the year. With the Muslim World League method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 14h 01m around June. It eases to 12h 47m by December. That is a 1h 14m swing, set by the city's latitude of 10.28°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Bongor 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. Bongor sits west of its Ndjamena meridian. The sun peaks about 7 minutes after noon, so Dhuhr today is 11:57 AM. We also publish times for nearby Déressia, Pala and Kelo. Each is only a few minutes off Bongor's clock.
