Bou Saâda's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Algeria. They are drawn from Bou Saâda's own coordinates (35.2086°N, 4.1740°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Bou Saâda's prayer times are worked out

From Bou Saâda, the Qibla is 104° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,785 km (2,352 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Bou Saâda's own coordinates (35.21°N, 4.17°E), not a national average. That is why Bou Saâda's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Bou Saâda timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Bou Saâda lies well west inside its Algiers time zone. So the sun peaks about 52 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:42 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 20m near June down to 11h 18m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Bou Saâda 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 M'Sila, Sidi Aïssa and Djelfa. Each is only a few minutes off Bou Saâda's clock.
