Prayer Times in Borama, Somalia
Prayer times in Borama are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (9.94°N). We use the Muslim World League method, the one followed across Somalia. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.
Borama's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Somalia. They are drawn from Borama's own coordinates (9.9361°N, 43.1828°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.
How Borama's prayer times are worked out
From Borama, the Qibla is 345° from true north. Face north to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,327 km (824 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Borama's own coordinates (9.94°N, 43.18°E), not a national average. That is why Borama's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.
Borama sits just 9.94°N of the equator. Its prayer calendar barely shifts across the year. With the Muslim World League method, the longest daily fast is about 14h 00m. The shortest is about 12h 49m. That is a swing of only 1h 11m 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 Borama 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 Ruqi, Gebiley and Ārabī. Each is only a few minutes off Borama's clock.

Prayer times on the equator's edge
Somalia sits just north of the equator, with Mogadishu at barely 2°N. Day length therefore hardly moves across the year, and the five prayers keep one of the steadiest rhythms anywhere. Fajr, Maghrib and the rest shift by minutes, not hours, between seasons. The country keeps East Africa Time (UTC+3) year-round with no daylight saving. Religious affairs sit with the federal Ministry of Endowments and Religious Affairs, while daily timetables come from local mosques. This page applies the Muslim World League calculation (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°) to this city's own coordinates. Somali practice is almost entirely Shafi'i, so Asr follows the standard first-shadow reckoning.
Mogadishu's coral mosques
Mogadishu's old town holds one of the oldest mosques on the East African coast. The Fakhr al-Din Mosque in Hamar Weyne is dated by inscription to 1269 and attributed to Sultan Fakhr al-Din. It is built from coral block, with a marble mihrab. It is a reminder of the medieval sultanate that made the city an Indian Ocean trading power. The modern era answers it across town. The Mosque of Islamic Solidarity was built in 1987 with Saudi funding and holds some ten thousand worshippers. It is often cited as one of the largest mosques in the Horn of Africa. Closed through the civil war, it reopened in 2006 and remains the capital's great congregational mosque.
