How Bougouni's prayer times are worked out

From Bougouni, the Qibla is 71° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 5,147 km (3,198 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Bougouni's own coordinates (11.42°N, 7.48°W), not a national average. That is why Bougouni's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Bougouni timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Bougouni lies well west inside its Bamako time zone. So the sun peaks about 38 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:28 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 06m near June down to 12h 43m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Bougouni 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 Kalaban Koro, Bamako and Dialakorodji. Each is only a few minutes off Bougouni's clock.
